Mott Haven Academy Charter School

Special education program: special education students benefit from the same support as our general education population and they are given additional support to ensure success. Mott haven academy charter school is committed to an inclusive education and contracts with any agencies necessary to provide related services for students with identified needs. Research suggests that our target population of children involved in the child welfare system enter school with more special education needs in comparison to their non-child welfare counterparts. To address these needs, we hire more full-time special education teachers than other school programs, employ more social workers than typical schools, implement an inclusion model, practice differentiated instruction and partner with service providers. The services provided may include but are not limited to: speech-language pathology and audiologist services, psychological services, physical and occupational therapy, therapeutic recreation, orientation and mobility services, diagnostic and/or evaluative medical services and student and/or parent counseling.
