SBE - The New School of San Francisco: special education data and contacts
How to ask this district for a free special-education assessment, and what it reports to the California Department of Education each October.
Asking SBE - The New School of San Francisco for an assessment
Public school districts must assess children 3 and older who may need special education, at no cost, including children who aren't in public school yet. For a child in private school, the district where the school is located may handle the assessment; call to confirm.
- Write to the district's special education office, or your child's principal, asking for an assessment.
- The district has 15 days to send you an assessment plan.
- After you sign the plan, it has 60 days to assess your child and meet with you.
Days between school sessions and school vacations longer than five school days don't count. Keep a copy of everything you send.

What the district reports
On Census Day each October, California public schools report how many students have an active IEP, grouped by each student's primary disability category. Each student is counted once.
San Francisco County: 24.0% · California: 23.3%
California Department of EducationWhat this measures: Counts students whose primary special-education eligibility category is reported by public schools on Census Day. It is not a count of all autistic children, not a clinical diagnosis count, and not a prevalence rate.

Where students in special education learn
Each student's IEP placement on Census Day: how much of the day they spend in a regular class, or whether they are taught in a separate school or a preschool setting.
What this measures: Program setting reflects each student's IEP placement on Census Day. Districts with more preschool or more students with significant needs will show different mixes, so a setting mix is not a measure of school quality.
Classification counts are not autism rates or school ratings.
Students whose IEP lists a category as primary. A student served under speech or another category, or without an IEP, is not in the autism count.
Size, grades served, preschool programs, and county-run programs all change the mix. A higher count is not a sign of better or worse schools.
CDE withholds small cells to protect students. Those show as suppressed, never as zero.
