Pursuant to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and New Jersey Administrative Code Title 6A:14, Special Education, the North Brunswick Public School District has a responsibility to locate, identify and evaluate all resident students with disabilities who are in need of special education and related services, including students with disabilities attending nonpublic schools. The school district locates, identifies and evaluates, where appropriate, children ages 3-21 including highly mobile students with disabilities, such as migrant and homeless students, and students who may be disabled even though they are advancing through each grade level. Upon written request, the district will conduct an initial identification meeting for any resident child to determine whether a Child Study Team evaluation is warranted. Such a request must be made in writing to:

It’s a long road...Why walk it alone?

NB-SEPTO is a district-wide organization designed to build strong partnerships amongst teachers, parents, administration, existing PTO’s, and the community so that all classified students from preschool through high school will be better understood, integrated, and embraced by our school and community. Its goal is to promote the social, emotional, and academic welfare of the special education student by supporting and providing families with the tools and information they need to work collaboratively and to be more effective advocates for their children.
