Integrated settings for preschool students with disabilities are those in which special education services are provided at home, part-time or full-time in typical early childhood programs.

 

The above table indicates that while the Statewide average rate of providing preschool students with disabilities special education and/or related services in integrated settings was 60 percent in School-year 2003-2004, a much larger percentage of preschool students were provided services in integrated settings in vast majority of the counties in New York State. Only 9 counties (including New York City as a single county) provided services in integrated settings to less than the Statewide average percentage of preschool students.
