Welcome to the web page for the Byron Union School District’s Department of Educational Services. Consistent with our District’s vision, we strive to provide each and every student with an education that celebrates them as learners and fosters a lifelong desire to seek knowledge and understanding. We work hard every day to achieve this goal by gathering necessary information to understand the unique needs of each student we serve, collaborating with parents and staff to develop support plans, utilizing research based strategies and evidence based interventions, and closely monitoring student progress.
The Department of Educational Services oversees special education services, section 504, foster youth, homeless youth, attendance, health services, and home and hospital instruction.
