Program for Exceptional Students

The Cook County Program for Exceptional Students believes in the dignity and worth of every individual, and in the right of every student to have the opportunity to develop intellectually, socially, physically, and emotionally to their fullest potential. We will provide leadership, services, and support to strengthen the capacity of schools, families, and communities to ensure the success of all students through collaboration in the educational process.


PUBLIC NOTICE



Federal and State regulations require the Cook County School system to have in effect procedures for the identification, location, and evaluation of all students with disabilities, who reside in Cook County. These students may be preschool students, private school students, public school students, homeless/migrant students, charter school students, children served in community programs such as rehabilitation centers or day care centers, and/or home school students.
