Alternative/Special Education Itinerant Services
The BOCES Shared Personnel Program is designed to accommodate the instructional and support services needs of the participating districts. Under this program, certified and qualified personnel are employed to work in two or more districts. A district may receive up to 60% or three days of service per week. Some of these services may be available to Special Education students who are enrolled in private or parochial schools. The Shared Personnel Program provides services in the following areas. Other areas may be developed as district needs emerge.
