Highlight your school’s exemplary programs and services for students with special needs by entering the Innovations in Special Education Award program.
If you have a new, successful, groundbreaking program that has been in place for at least one school year, we want to hear about it.
The program is part of Special Education Week in New Jersey – 2023 and is sponsored by the New Jersey School Boards Association and ASAH, which has served the private special education community since 1974.
Since it began in 2002, the Innovations program has drawn wide interest from the state’s special education community. In 2022, five of the entries received top honors, with one garnering exemplary status.
