Parent Resources

Parents play a vital role in their child's academics. The Special Services Department encourages parents to say informed about their child's education and ask questions when needed. We have a variety of district, community and state resources available for your review below.


Derby Public Schools offers a variety of Special Education programs at the elementary, middle, high school and post-high school levels to fit the needs of each student.
