Message from the Executive DirectorAmy Steiner

Welcome to the Appleton Area School District where our focus is Success for Every Student, Every Day! I am honored to have the opportunity to serve and lead the district as the Executive Director of Special Education. I have been dedicated to the field of Special Education for my entire career, as a Special Education Teacher, Program Support Teacher, Associate Director of Special Education, and in my current role. 

I am passionate about closing achievement gaps for our students and addressing barriers to student success. As an advocate and instructional leader, I will continue to utilize student-centered, data-driven decision-making to ensure we have the appropriate programs and services to meet the unique needs of our students. Whether you are new to special education programming or have been engaged in special education for a while, know that I am here to help.  

In the Appleton Area School District, our Special Education staff is dedicated to supporting the learning of all students. We understand that each student is unique, and our goal is to tailor our services to meet the individual needs of every child. We believe that all students deserve a strong educational foundation allowing them to reach their maximum potential. With this, partnerships are key and I am grateful for our community and families that collaborate with us to enhance learning opportunities for our students. 

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our Special Education department. Your involvement is vital, and we value the opportunity to work together to create an enriching educational experience for your child.
