The elementary school provides services to 10 day students and 47 residential students. Placement of students within the academic program depends on communication and academic ability, not age. Therefore the transition ages within the academic and residence programs are not the same for all students.

Academic students receive a diploma upon completion of Carnegie Units. Certificate students receive an IEP Certificate of Completion. MSD educational staff are certified staff. Course offerings follow State Department of Education guidelines. There are 24 students in the vocational program.
