Elevate K-12’s Special Ed Live
When it comes to Special Ed,
doing nothing is not a solution.
Give students with IEPs the support they need to succeed, from an experienced certified special education teacher that cares. With interactive, synchronous learning and built-in differentiation, our platform helps diverse learners thrive.
3 different ways schools use Special Ed LIVE
1
Self-Contained Core
A small-group, credit-bearing course for students with IEPs to receive their primary grade-level instruction from certified special ed teacher. This structured setting ensures individualized support and mastery of core content.
2
Resource Room
Small-group grade-level or remedial support for students who need additional instruction beyond their core classes. Offered as pull-out sessions or scheduled interventions to reinforce key concepts and strengthen student progress.
3
Alleviate Caseloads
Use Special Ed LIVE to alleviate caseloads for on the-ground special education teachers, freeing them up to focus on supporting inclusion, individual intervention, progress monitoring, and IEPs.
How Special Ed LIVE works
1
Classroom set-up
Small groups of up to 12 students with IEPs are pulled out from their general ed classes 3-5 days a week to spend a class period in the Special Ed LIVE classroom.
2
Cluster seating
Students sit in clusters of 2-4 with their Special Ed LIVE teacher on a large screen at the front of class. An in-person Classroom Coach circulates to support as needed.

A typical day
- Special Ed LIVE classes all begin with a consistent welcome routine, starting with the teacher greeting students by name as soon as they enter.
- Class time is spent building foundational skills in core content and helping students access grade-level content through group and individual practice.
- Throughout class, the Elevate K-12 platform prompts students to assess their understanding, giving Special Ed LIVE teachers real-time data to help customize their live instruction.
