Child Find Notice (click here for translations)

It is the responsibility of the Brockton Public Schools to identify any child who is a resident of Brockton, who may have a disability, regardless of the severity of the disability. It is also the responsibility of the Brockton Public Schools to evaluate students who may have a disability to determine if they are eligible for special education or related services under IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act) or 306 CMR 28 (Massachusetts Special Education Regulations).

The Brockton Public Schools is committed to identifying children before their third birthday to provide early intervention services for three and four-year-olds with disabilities. If you have questions or concerns regarding your child's development and would like to have him/her screened, please contact the Special Education Office at 508-580-7525.

If you have other specific questions about your child, you can also contact the Principal at your child's school for information about the Instructional Support Team (IST) process, which the first step in the referral process is to determine eligibility. It is through this school-based process that strategies are developed, academic and/or behavioral interventions and data is collected to support your child to determine if a referral for special education evaluation is needed.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT – YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE!

Are you a former Brockton Public Schools (BPS) student who exited BPS during the 2018-2019 school year? Were you receiving special education services/did you have an Individualized Education Program (IEP) at the time of your exit?

If so, you will soon be contacted by Laura Milano Albert, BPS Transition Specialist, to complete a very brief survey over the web or telephone.

Your input will help us to make high school a better place for future high school students.

Please complete our survey with Laura when she reaches out to you! It will only take you about 5 minutes to do. You can either complete it yourself online, or she can ask you the survey questions over the phone, and submit it for you.

The deadline to complete the survey is November 15.

We want to hear from you! What you have to say is really important!

BPS will use the survey information to help us understand whether our schools are preparing students to be successful in adult life.

Please respond to Laura when she contacts you and help us by answering this survey! Thank you for your time.
