Enrolling a Child with an Individualized Education Program (IEP)
To enroll a child with an IEP please contact the school or center where your child will be enrolled.
If you have contacted your child's school and still have questions regarding enrollment, please contact the Procedural Support Liaison (PSL) for your school. You will need to know your school's pyramid to identify your school's PSL. To find your school's pyramid, search for your child's school using the school name and then click on the school name.
