We are as inclusive as possible in welcoming all students for whom we can provide an appropriate program based on their needs. We believe that every child can learn and learns at her/his own pace.  Children who are in need of special support staff will receive services in order to help them learn and achieve at their level.  The school districts provide special services and Saint Kilian will do its best to provide assistance in accordance with the guidelines of the Diocese and the Diocesan Director of Individual Student Abilities.
