The Manchester Regional High School and Bergen County Special Services Collaborative offers specialized services to MRHS students with Behavioral Disabilities and Multiple Disabilities in their home district. Operated by the Bergen County Special Services School District, the Collaborative offers students self-contained classes as well as opportunities for mainstreaming into classes with their non-disabled peers.

BCSS is a public receiving school district with a long history of providing local school districts with comprehensive educational services for students with disabilities. In this new collaboration, BCSS will offer supports and services to students to enable them to succeed in a "mainstream" high school setting. These supports and services include specially trained teachers, paraprofessionals, behavior specialists, and assistive technology specialists.

A Message from Sandi

Welcome to the Manchester Program website. We are excited about the many relationships we have developed and strides we have made to create a supportive educational environment within MRHS. Our vision of providing an inclusive, individualized program with all of the technological supports our students need and deserve has clearly evolved.

Work Sites

The BCSS Transition Department here at the Manchester Program has offered our students many internship opportunities.

Going Green

In a year-long environmental science project, students have recently begun to study recycling and ways in which they can "go green" to help save the environment.
