What is Special Education Connections?
Trimester 3 Progress Reports
We want to take this opportunity to inform you that your child's case manager will be providing you with a copy of your child's trimester three progress notes on or before May 31, 2024. These notes are an essential part of our commitment to keeping you informed of your child's progress on their Individualized Education Program (IEP) goals and objectives.
We encourage you to review your child's progress notes carefully and reach out to your child's case manager at the start of the 24-25 school year as our case managers will be off calendar for summer recess. Should you have immediate concerns, please contact the District Office at 858-755-9301.

Activities to Enjoy With Your Child This Summer
Spending the Summer in San Diego
With summer break quickly approaching, we encourage you to enjoy quality time with your children. Below is a list of summer ideas that we think you and your child might enjoy.
VISIT A PLAYGROUND
Parks are a free and easy way for children of all ages to have fun, exercise, and spend time outside. If you and your family have a favorite playground, that's a great place to start. Invite friends or family, pack a picnic, and make a day of it.

TAKE A HIKE
