In cooperation with family and community, the mission of the Papillion-La Vista School District, is to prepare all students to be productive responsible citizens in a changing society through superior educational programs in a safe and supportive environment. The Papillion-La Vista School District provides services for students with disabilities who range in age from birth to 21 years. Available in the student’s natural environment or neighborhood school, these services include accommodations, instruction, physical and occupational therapy, speech therapy, vision and hearing services, school psychology, vocational experience, and assistive technology. Services for students are based upon goals and objectives that are outlined jointly between school and home. Teachers utilize an Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) or an Individualized Educational Plan (IEP) to coordinate the educational programming that a student will need to be a lifelong, productive citizen. Students are educated in age-appropriate environments with their general education peers to the greatest extent possible. The District prides itself on its inclusive services, as well as the quality of its staff. Teachers, paraprofessionals, specialists, and administrators function as a team in delivering high quality programs.
