Questions about area schools

Does anyone know about the smaller town schools? I'm looking to move to a smaller district for educational and safety reasons. More on the safety reason.
Okay I need to know about special-ed. I have a MR child. And a middle school student. Now we understand about the safety part.
I've been looking at Jetmore and Hanston, does anyone have any info? I have tried to access them on line but there's nothing about specEd. Please help.
Thanks

Hanston consolidated with Ransom(?).

Don't let your child ride the bus in Jetmore. jk

I would think if a school recieves federal funds which all public schools do that they are required to have the ability to accomodate specail needs kids - be it physical or mental. I would be more concerned over who's teaching - what's the training of whose teaching, how many are there - is my kid gonna be lost ina crowd with kids that are just "discipline" problems or am I gonna have other children like my child.? Disicpline issue kids don't belong in "special needs" - they belong in detention........ Make sure your child is safe in the classroom - the rest will fall into place.

I know that there a getting to be quite a few families that send their kids to Minneola for school. I don't know about Minneola's special Ed classes...

Luker, I thought Hanston consolidated with Pawnee Heights (Rozel/Burdett)? Ransom is North of Ness City.

DragonFly, if'n it was me, I would just call these Districts or go visit. I am sure that you can be accomadated.

That would be like asking a Chamber of Commerce about the quality of their town.

Hanston did consolidate with Pawnee Heights. I wouldn't reccomend going there. Jetmore isn't too bad. Minneola is a good place to go to school & they do have a good SpEd program.

area schools

Dragonfly, have you checked into the Cimarron school district? They have some dodge City kids going there and they are installing security camera's at the Jr-High School. The new principle was at Dodge City High School until this year. There are places to rent and buy in Cimarron also. just an idea..

If you want to do the best thing for your kids you will find a private school (not sure if there are any here or not) and enroll them there. Do not subject your kids to the government schools.

The only private school in the area that I know of is Sacred Heart catholic school. There they wouldn't be subject to government schools, but they would be subject to religion, so I don't know if that would be any better.
