Introduction

San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools (SBCSS), specific local education agency (LEA) programs, and other alternative programs provide an array of education opportunities for students not eligible to attend schools in their local school districts, those students ordered to attend by their probation officer, or students referred by their LEA and/or physician as pregnant minors. A description of these public-school options is contained within this chapter. Special education students who attend any of these instructional programs receive services in accordance with their Individualized Education Program (IEP).
