The Office of Constituent Services and Government Relations is also available as a confidential resource for persons seeking assistance regarding RCPS matters.

VDOE Special Education Indicator 8 Survey
Each school year, the Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) is required to report to the U.S. Department of Education the "percent of parents with a child receiving special education services who report that schools facilitated parent involvement as a means of improving services and results for children with disabilities." Your participation in this survey will help VDOE collect additional information to identify training needs related to the special education processes.
Visit the Department of Special Education webpage to take the survey.
