P3/SETTS

---

P3 (private schools) or SETSS (public schools) is a free service provided by the NYC Department of Education for all students that qualify. The purpose of P3/SETSS is to allow your child to remain in the general education classroom while receiving extra learning support. As a parent it is your right to decide when these services will be used. As approved by the New York Department of Education, Máthisi allows a students to be matched up with virtual P3/SETTS providers. 

All our providers are licensed special education teachers. They have been trained to work remotely and provide virtual sessions via Zoom. We know that homework time can be the most stressful time for any family and therefore Máthisi would love to assist. We are available in the evenings to help students with homework, study skills or any area your child could use some extra assistance with.  

If you feel your child needs the extra school support, you would reach out to the board of Education and request an evaluation. The Board of Ed will then set up a time to meet with you to evaluate your child. Your child will be evaluated and an IEP will be written for your child. If they qualify the P3/SETSS services will be added to their IEP.  

At the meeting, the IEP team, of which you are a member, will review information from the evaluation and other sources to determine if your child is eligible for special education services. If so, the team will work together at the meeting to develop an IEP. 

The Individualized Education Program (IEP) is a written statement of our plan to provide your child with a Free and Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) in their Least Restrictive Environment (LRE). This means your child will be in a general education classroom for most of the day and provided with extra support as needed.
