Welcome to our Department

Manheim Central School District offers a continuum of services that are designed to meet the needs of your learner with an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) and Gifted Individualized Education Plan (GIEP). Through the identification, reevaluation, and IEP or GIEP development process, we address learners' needs by focusing on their strengths and inclusive practices in order to support them holistically in our two elementary schools, middle school, and high school. Through encouraged family involvement, we take a team approach to prepare our learners to be responsible citizens who are lifelong learners.


We offer learning support services, emotional support services, and life skills. We also offer related services such as speech and language therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, and autistic support services. Annual meetings are held each year to review the current IEP or GIEP to create goals for the learner to work on. If you have any questions, you should contact the case manager of your child.

Speech and Language

Speech and Language therapists provide services for learners identified with needs through their IEPs. Learners work on goals to improve their access to their educational environment. Skills worked on include articulation, fluency, social use of language, and receptive and expressive language (i.e. grammar, vocabulary, summarizing). Services can be direct or consultative with direct services occurring in a group or individual setting based on the learners needs.
