Island Trees School District

In addition to our full instructional program, Island Trees provides extensive support services to help meet the needs of all of our students. Our mission is to provide the highest level and quality of academic instruction in the Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) to all students who have been identified as a student with a disability. Our programs include related services, resource room services, integrated classes, and special education classes. Any parents who suspect their child may have an educational disability may make a written referral to their school’s principal or to Dr. Lauren Lombardi, Assistant Superintendent of Special Education. 

Please see links below for more information. 

School Mental Health Partnership

We are pleased to announce our new partnership between Island Trees and Northwell Health to enhance our students’ social-emotional well-being and academic success. This partnership includes the support of a child and adolescent psychiatrist, comprehensive behavioral health and substance use services, community education opportunities and professional development.
