The school serves students from Leon County and the surrounding counties of Gadsden, Jefferson, Taylor, Wakulla, Liberty and Franklin whose needs can’t be successfully met in a traditional school setting.Ĭurrent initiatives at the school include literacy instruction, instruction on the Florida Sunshine State Standards through the appropriate access points, use of technology and assistive technology and the coordination of transition services to post school settings.
