The Exeter-West Greenwich Regional School District (EWGRSD) is committed to the provision of an exceptional educational experience for every student in a safe environment. The Special Services Department’s goal is to ensure all students with disabilities receive their federally guaranteed free, appropriate public education (FAPE) in the least restrictive environment, thus promoting inclusive schooling. EWGRSD is an inclusive school community and places a high priority on meeting the needs of all children within the context of the general education program and classroom. This inclusion ensures all students achieve optimal academic growth while developing socially, emotionally and physically as well as allows children to be full members of our community.
The EWGRSD Special Services Department offers a wide range of continuum of supports and services designed to identify and serve students including Child Find, specialized instruction, speech-language therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, psychology, and social work services. Students are determined to be eligible for special education by meeting state criteria in one or more state defined disability areas.
The Special Services Department at EWGRSD is committed to providing:
Occupational Therapy Newsletters
Our newsletters were designed to bring awareness to different areas of development that our students may have difficulty with. The newsletters provide the parents with information on tips and tricks they can use at home to help build and improve the skills for their children.
