The Office of Specialized Services is committed to building strong relationships and structuring supports so that every student can have access and measured growth towards goals to be prepared for a successful transition to college and beyond academically, socially, and emotionally.
In compliance with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and all other applicable laws, Boys’ Latin provides an appropriate educational program designed to meet the individual learning needs of our students.
