Welcome to the Child Study Team

Mission Statement: Perth Amboy Public Schools Department of Special Services is committed to the academic, social, and emotional success of all students in order to prepare them for independent living, vocational careers, employment, and/or college readiness. Students with disabilities will be educated in the least restrictive environment to the maximum extent possible with the goal that every student will learn N.J. Student Learning Standards.

Vision Statement: We are committed to providing every student with an individualized program that applies well-established teaching practices in education so that students will feel safe, supported, and secure. All students are valued members of our community with equal opportunities for meaningful participation in inclusive programs for academic instruction and extracurricular activities. We pride ourselves on our interdisciplinary partnerships that bring together team members across departments including the Child Study Team, related service providers, teachers, school counselors, health service providers, the administration, outside agencies, and families who will support each student in obtaining a free and appropriate education so that students will reach their highest academic, social, and emotional potential.
