Board approves extended-school-year placement at Royer Greaves School for the Blind
Summary
The board approved an extended school year placement at Royer Greaves School for the Blind for an individual student; the board described the placement as specialized and necessary.
The Solanco School District board approved an extended-school-year placement at the Royer Greaves School for the Blind on June 2 for a student requiring a specialized program.
District staff described Royer Greaves as a specialized placement (the school was identified as located in Paoli) and said the student already required the placement during the regular school year; extended-year services require separate board approval. "This is a very specialized program for an individual student, so it's our recommendation, that we approve this," a staff presenter told the board.
Board members approved the placement by voice vote with no recorded opposition. Staff did not provide a public cost figure during the meeting; board members were told the placement is a necessary individualized educational placement for the student.
