•  Special Education Overview
     
    Marshall Public Schools provides special education and related services to children from Birth to age 21.  Students must meet the state of Minnesota eligibility criteria to be eligible to receive services determined through an Individual Family Service Plan (IFSP) meeting or an Individual Education Program (IEP) meeting.  These plans describe the student's Present Levels of Academic and Functional Performance, special education needs, goals and objectives, accommodations & modifications, and services designed to meet the student's individual needs.  These plans are designed to provide a Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) in the Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) for the student to make adequate progress.
     
    The Total Special Education System (TSES) is a summary of procedures for Marshall Public Schools special education services.
     
    The Restrictive Procedures Plan outlines Marshall Public Schools procedures for implementing the use of restrictive procedures when an emergency situation exists.  This plan can be reviewed here: Restrictive Procedures Plan
     
    Marshall Public Schools participates in the regional Special Education Advisory Council (SEAC) through SWWC Service Cooperative. The purpose of this group is for parents to advocate and advise for special education issues. The attached  brochure further explains SEAC through the SWWC Service Cooperative.
