Programs & Services

The academic program at St. Elizabeth School offers students both traditional and innovative coursework. Academics at SES emphasize the functional application of skills. The curriculum is designed to help students progress and experience success. The curriculum and student goals are informed by requirements of the Local School Systems and MSDE (Maryland State Department of Education).

​

Our strong student to teacher ratio allows us to individualize academics for all our students. Teachers at SES are certified by MSDE and are qualified to teach students in grades K-12 in special education. Many have additional certifications from MSDE as well. We consistently challenge our students to achieve their goals while providing support throughout the learning process.

All of our students pursue a core curriculum of courses that include:

• English / Language Arts

• Mathematics

• Social Studies

• Science
