This session shares my conversation with Paula Marano, Asst Superintendent for Student Services. We had our discussion in a conference room at the School District Central offices on Monday, November 17, 2025.

Our conversation covers

  • Paula’s path to this role
  • Special education as required by State and Federal law
  • In district vs out of district placements
  • Individualized Education Program (IEP) & Sec 504 plans and reviews
  • Student services overall

The recording runs about 31 minutes, so let’s listen in.
