horizontal rule

The Alternative Education Center (AEC) is a member of the Cedar Rapids Community Schools under the direction of the Office of Special Services. 
Sheila Lehman is the Executive Director of Special Services and Jodee Beck is the Associate Director responsible for the AEC.

The AEC facilitates a Level 3 Behavioral Focused program serving High School students. The focus of the program is to support students with behavioral challenges. Students are provided a positive environment that allows for self-management of appropriate school behaviors, and gives students an opportunity to make choices that will lead them to the goal of returning to their home school building. Students are placed at the Alternative Education Center through their home school Child Study Team.  There are four classrooms in the Level Three program.  Each classroom has a full time teacher and a full time paraprofessional.  There is an average of four students in each room.
