The Katonah-Lewisboro Unified Free School District is responsible for providing special education services to all resident students who qualify for such supports. These services are coordinated by the district's Special Services Office, which encompasses the district's Committee for Special Education at the preschool, elementary and secondary levels, in conjunction with the regular education program. We invite the parents of all classified students to partner with us to meet the needs of your children.
Please be advised that in the event of a school closing due to inclement weather, the Committee on Special Education will not meet. Should there be a delayed opening, all meetings which fall within the delay will be canceled. All canceled meetings will be rescheduled as soon as possible and you will be notified in writing of the new date and time.
