Special Education

Coonley Elementary School proudly serves as a city-wide cluster site for an instructional setting for students with mild and moderate cognitive disabilities ranging in age from Kindergarten to eighth grade. Students with disabilities are also serviced in their general education and resource classrooms by direct service from Special Education Resource Teachers and paraprofessional support. Our valued special education programs include: primary, intermediate and upper cognitive disabilities.

All placements at Coonley for the Special Education Cluster Programs are made through the Chicago Public Schools Office of Special Education and Supports.
