01

Who and which grades

Published coverageK-12 district continuum with grade-specific identification criteria

02

How students are considered

Published processMillville publishes grade-specific multiple-measure criteria. Families may request consideration, and the district may also use school nominations and assessment evidence. The official page distinguishes reconsideration of an individual placement decision from a statutory complaint about district compliance.

03

What service can look like

Published modelThe district provides a continuum rather than one identical class at every grade. Its official page describes grade-specific opportunities and identifies district contacts who can explain the service that applies to a student's school and grade.
