Students enrolled in special education classes must meet State of Iowa criteria for entitlement and have an I.E.P. in place. The I.E.P.(Individual Education Plan) contains information about instructional needs, goals and objectives for a calendar year (sometimes less), and lists related services. Special education students should participate in the I.E.P. process and make course selections based on individual needs and desires. All special education students (excluding profoundly multiple handicapped) must meet the high school graduation requirements established by the Davenport Board of Education.
