My son has needed special services and he has been given more help than I ever expected. We are very grateful for the dedication of the teachers and staff.
I have had several children in this school for the past 8 years. BLE got a new principal last year. Several teachers make a good attempt at tayloring their teaching to the individuals in their classroom. The special ed staff is genuinely caring, but individual programs tend to be cookie cutter based upon diagnosis and what resources the school has available. There has been a shortage of speech pathologists for several years (they only work certain days of the week at this school, so no child will ever 'need' 5 days a week therapy), and this drives how often your child will receive services. Shop carefully and consider whether or not your special needs child will be just one of the kids, or whether a lot of time will be spent separated (physically, socially or academically) from his/her peers. Play nice, the administration can get unpleasant.
I believe Black Lake Elementary staff and administration is the best around. I know many of these excellent educators first-hand and have experienced a wonderful elementary process for my children.
Black Lake's School Counselor is second to none. She cares about kids and goes the extra mile all the time.
