GogebicOntonagon ISD Special Education

The Gogebic-Ontonagon Intermediate School District (GOISD) Special Education program serves as a critical support system for students with disabilities across the western Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Headquartered in Bergland, the district acts as a regional educational service agency, providing essential leadership, resources, and specialized services that local school districts may not be able to offer independently. Their primary mission is to ensure that students with diverse learning needs receive equitable access to quality education, fostering an environment where every child can reach their full potential.

The GOISD Special Education department coordinates a wide range of services, including early childhood intervention, individualized education program (IEP) support, speech and language pathology, and transition planning for post-secondary life. By working collaboratively with parents, local educators, and community agencies, the district streamlines the delivery of specialized instruction and therapeutic services. Through their centralized oversight, they help maintain high standards for compliance and instructional excellence, ensuring that students throughout Gogebic and Ontonagon counties receive the tailored support necessary for academic and personal success.
