A new Special Education Administration System to be implemented in Fairfax.

Fairfax County, VA - January 31, 2005 - Fairfax County Public Schools selects Edupoint's GENESEA Special Education Administration software to manage special education information and Individual Education Programs (IEPs) for students in the nation's 12th largest school district.

  • Provide online access to classroom and testing accommodations
  • Facilitate the timely and accurate collection and reporting of information
  • Support special education teacher retention
  • Support special education staffing
