School Overview

The Lassen County Special Education department, located at 472-013 Johnstonville Rd. N. in Susanville, CA, serves as a centralized hub for educational support services within the county. Operating under the jurisdiction of the Lassen County Office of Education (LCOE), this facility is dedicated to providing specialized instruction, therapies, and resources for students with disabilities. Its mission is to ensure that children with diverse learning needs receive equitable access to quality education, fostering an environment where they can reach their full developmental and academic potential through individualized programs.

The facility functions as a key component of the local Special Education Local Plan Area (SELPA), which coordinates services across various school districts in Lassen County.
