Special Education Department

The Ashburnham Westminster Regional School District provides a dedicated special education department serving students from preschool through high school. The district specializes in supporting children with diverse learning challenges, including language-based learning disabilities and twice-exceptional (2e) learners. Their mission is centered on ensuring every student is known, challenged, and supported through individualized care.

The district offers specialized educational support services and an inclusive preschool program designed to meet various developmental needs. Programs integrate evidence-based therapeutic methodologies to enhance both academic learning outcomes and social-emotional development. A core component of their approach is the collaborative creation of Individualized Education Plans (IEPs), bringing together educators, specialists, and families to meet each child's unique requirements.

To foster a nurturing environment, the district maintains low student-teacher ratios, allowing for personalized attention and meaningful connections. Families are actively engaged through the Special Education Parent Advisory Council (SEPAC), ensuring a strong partnership in the educational journey. With specialized facilities and a focus on community inclusivity, the district provides a structured and supportive setting for students to flourish.
