Special Education Resources
Albuquerque Talent Development Academy is a 100% inclusion school. We believe that this model, in compliance with Federal guidelines, is the Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) for students to thrive and meet academic success. Our goal is to meet all students’ particular learning needs and prepare them for a successful transition post-graduation.
At ATDA, we also nurture social-emotional growth in students and include them in their special education decision making. We feel like it is important for the special education student’s IEP Team-student, family, teachers and related service providers (if applicable) to work together in a holistic manner to achieve positive educational outcomes.
