SPED at North Beach
What are special education services?
Special education services are the supports, settings, and instruction provided to an individual student, supplementing general education curriculums and settings. The scope and design of each student’s services are driven by their evaluation.
Special education services consist of specially designed instruction and related services. Instruction refers to the content of what is taught (examples: reading or social skills). Related services refer to both instructional and non-instructional supports (examples: transportation or language interpretation).
Services are not intended to be a barrier to either the general education curriculum or setting.

The North Beach Way is our school motto. “At North Beach, we take care of ourselves, each other, and our school!”
Herbie is the beloved Seal mascot of North Beach Elementary. Herbie makes appearances as prizes to students, dresses up for each year’s auction, and is a rallying cry for the North Beach way. Herbie is soft, fluffy, and 100% adorable.
Purple, white, and athletic gold are the North Beach Elementary school colors.
“Caught Ya” Tickets are a way that teachers and staff recognize students for following the North Beach Way. Students’ names are announced and celebrated in the student’s classroom.
Enrichment is an after-school program run by the PTA. These classes allow your student to sample new and interesting activities and explore their world. Classes change throughout the year and include comics and mural design, art, basketball, theater, chess, and coding.
