It is the responsibility of the Grafton Public Schools to identify any child who may have a disability who is either a resident of Grafton or who attends a private school within the geographic boundaries of Grafton even if the student is not a resident of Grafton. This also includes students who are homeschooled.

Grafton Public Schools is also responsible for the evaluation of those students to determine if they are eligible for special education or related services under Federal law, IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act) or, Massachusetts State Law, 603 CMR 28 (Massachusetts Special Education Regulations).

Grafton Public Schools is also committed to identifying children before their third birthday in order to provide early intervention services for three and four year-olds with disabilities.

If you have questions or concerns regarding your child's development, please call Melissa Johnson at (508)839-5483 x7052 or email at johnsonme@grafton.k12.ma.us to discuss next steps.
