Regular Education
The teacher-student ratio for staffing in the District is the responsibility of the Board.

Each year the Superintendent will make staffing recommendations during the budget review and preparation process.
Special Education
It is the intent of the District to maintain a special education student-teacher ratio that will allow the teacher to work effectively and efficiently toward the individualized education program (IEP) objectives of each student with a disability and to work with classroom teachers to prevent learning problems whenever possible.
