The Pacifica Special Education Program respects, values, and builds on the strengths and differences of our students. Through high‐quality instruction and strong partnerships with families, we instill a life‐long love of learning. We provide students with the tools to form meaningful relationships and to become successful, independent, and thriving members of the community. As a community of learners and educators we believe the following:

• Providing access to high‐quality curricula, services, and support in an inclusive environment allows children to reach their academic potential.

• Working in partnerships with students and families creates opportunities for connections that nurture our students and enrich our community.

• Educating the whole child prepares our students to follow their own paths and fulfill their hopes and dreams.
