MOISD Satellite Programs

MOISD's Satellite Programs bring specialized special education services into local school districts, allowing students with unique learning needs to receive individualized instruction while remaining connected to their home school community and general education peers to the maximum extent possible. These programs provide evidence-based instruction, therapeutic supports, and opportunities for meaningful inclusion with peers; helping students develop the academic, social, behavioral, and life skills needed for long-term success.

Our Satellite Programs Include:

  • Elementary Resource Room Programs
    • Riverview Elementary, Big Rapids
    • GT Norman, Reed City
    • Mecosta Elementary, Chippewa Hills
  • Emotional Impairment (EI) Programs
    • Elementary Program at GT Norman, Reed City
    • Middle School Program at Reed City Middle School, Reed City

Our goal is to provide the right level of support in the least restrictive environment, helping every student learn, grow, and belong within their local school community.
