Special Populations

Welcome to the Rapoport Ravens Special Populations Department web page! This page is committed to our students who are served through special education, Section 504, English as a Second Language, and RTI (Response to Intervention) or for those who may be eligible for services in one of these areas. Through these various programs, we strive to provide services that allow all students with disabilities or language acquisition needs to access the same curriculum as their peers.
