Department Overview

School districts in California are mandated to provide special education services to children with disabilities from birth through age 22. While the 18 school districts of Marin are able to provide many of these services for students with mild to moderate educational needs, they partner with the Marin County Office of Education to provide regionalized special education programs for students with mild to moderate support needs, extensive support needs, as well as low incidence disabilities.

It is the goal of the Marin County Office of Education Special Education Department to provide high quality educational programs where students thrive.
