MFCS Special Education Program employs caring educators who have demonstrated their passion for working with our children; through the traditional concept of K’e; our staff embraces each student as a unique being. Special Education Program staff fully understands the importance of family, hence, we implement outreach activities and delivery of instructional/related services with strong emphasis on parental involvement. Staff are culturally oriented and have implemented culturally relevant activities that can enhance both student and parent’s academic endeavors.
