ESY SUMMER 2021
UPDATED 2/17/2021
Maine Township HSD 207 is providing Extended School Year (ESY) services in-person at Maine East High School on June 14 – July 22 from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm, Monday through Thursday. ESY is defined as special education and related services that are provided to a child with a disability beyond the normal school year of the public agency in accordance with the child’s IEP and at no cost to the parents of the child (ISBE 2005). The purpose of ESY is to help students maintain current skill levels and to avoid regression of goal progress.
Our staff will include Special Education Teachers, Teacher Assistants, Speech-Language Pathologist, Psychologists, Occupational Therapist, Physical Therapist, and other related service personnel. In order to participate in ESY, the ‘active IEP’ must indicate a need for ESY services determined by their IEP team.
Sincerely,
Edward Pieczynski
Assistant Director of Special Education
