These Committees are responsible for making recommendations to the Board of Education concerning an appropriate program or services, if needed, for each child with a disability.

Special Education Programs and Services Focused Review
The New York State Education Department's Office of Special Education has completed a Special Education Programs and Services Focused Review in the Amityville Union Free School District during the 2017-18 school year. This review examined the district's compliance with selected federal and State laws and regulations governing the education of students with disabilities.
The Special Education Quality Assurance Long Island Regional Office conducted the review. The review process involved a review of school records of a representative sample of students with disabilities, classroom visitations, interviews of parents, and staff surveys. Meetings of the committee on special education were also observed.
