Office of the Director of Special Education

Welcome to the Babylon Union Free School District Special Education Department!

We are committed to ensuring that every student has access to an inclusive, supportive, and engaging educational experience. The Special Education Department works collaboratively with students, families, educators, and related service providers to develop individualized programs that recognize each student's unique strengths, interests, and learning needs.

We believe that all students can achieve success when provided with appropriate supports and opportunities. Our goal is to foster independence, confidence, and academic, social, and emotional growth while helping students reach their full potential in the least restrictive environment.

Strong partnerships with families are at the heart of our work. Through communication and shared decision-making, we strive to build trusting relationships that support student success both at school and at home. Together, we create learning experiences that empower students to thrive and prepare them for productive, fulfilling futures.

Thank you for visiting our department. We are honored to serve the students and families of Babylon and look forward to working together to support every learner's journey.

Sincerely,

Daria Hagemeyer

District Director of Special Education
