SUPPORT FOR EVERY STUDENT'S SUCCESS
At Manchester Academic Charter School, we take our responsibility for identifying and providing special education programming for children seriously.
As mandated by Pennsylvania guidelines, we diligently work to locate and serve students who require special education services. Our commitment aligns with the annual requirement of Pennsylvania school districts to release the Annual Public and Parent Notice.

To ensure that every student’s unique needs are met, we adhere to the guidelines set forth by the Pennsylvania Department of Education. Our specialized approach focuses on offering comprehensive and inclusive educational opportunities that cater to diverse learning requirements. For more information about special education programs and services, you can visit the PA Department of Education Special Education page.
At MACS, we prioritize transparency and accessibility in our efforts to provide quality education to all students, including those who may benefit from special education services. By following the guidelines and maintaining open communication, we aim to create a supportive environment where every student can thrive academically and personally.
