Welcome to the Manasquan High School
Special Education Department
 
Supervisor: Margaret Polak, MA, Ed.S
 
Special Education Mission Statement
 

 
The goal of Special Education is to help students become independent learners, to teach learning strategies to prepare them to be successful in their general education classes, as well as prepare them for high school and post-secondary experiences.
 
This goal is achieved through a partnership between student, home and school. Manasquan has a well trained staff trained to effectively serve a broad range of learning disabled students through individualized planning and instruction.

The Special Education department includes professionals who specialize in working with students who have various disabilities and may need related services. Related services may include speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, and assistive technology. Students must meet eligibility requirements to enroll in a Special Education program.

Transition services provide purposeful, organized goals designed to help students move from middle school to high school and from high school to post-secondary education and/or employment and quality adult living. Regulations require consideration of transition services for students receiving Special Education by age 14, and each year thereafter.
