There are students that go to Citrus College who may have special needs. Some disorders like autism, blindness, loss of hearing may create difficulties with learning.

At school, many students can take for granted how liberating it is to be in an environment that welcomes them for precisely who they are and encourages who they may hope to become. Here at Citrus, students are free to express themselves in an inclusive space that nourishes individualistic...
