Dear Parent,
The Spencer County School District and the Kentucky Department of Education (KDE) are seeking feedback from parents regarding how your child’s school is involving you in the special education services provided to your child.
Please complete a brief, online survey to share your experience with your child’s special education services during the current school year (2019-2020). Please go to www.kypso.org, and complete the eleven-question survey telling us about your current experiences.
Only one parent per student should complete this survey. However, if you have more than one child with an Individual Education Program (IEP), please complete a survey for each of your children.
All responses are anonymous and cannot be traced back to you or your child. Results will be analyzed by the Human Development Institute (HDI) at the University of Kentucky (UK) and used for a report to the U.S. Department of Education. Analysis of the final report will be utilized to improve parent involvement in special education programs.
The deadline for completing this very important survey is May 31, 2020.
Thank you for your help.
Todd Russell
Director of Special Education

Welcome to the Spencer County Schools Exceptional Child Services Webpage. This site is designed to assist community members, parents, prospective parents, educators, and students. The website provides introductory information about special education services in the Spencer County Schools and links to local, regional, and national resources.
We are a team of professionals dedicated to providing services for students needing specially designed instruction (SDI). The Spencer County School District provides services to children and youth ages 3-21 who qualify for SDI. General educators and special educators work collaboratively with parents to provide services for our students. Educational services are individually determined based upon a student’s educational disability and the student’s individual needs.
We have staff ready to answer any questions you may have about the education of students with special needs. You can reach someone at the Spencer County ECS Office by calling 502-477-6787 or by email at todd.russell@spencer.kyschools.us.
