More than 32 years of special education advocacy experience, right here for La Cañada Flintridge families working with LCUSD.
Ballou Education is a special education advocate La Cañada Flintridge families trust to navigate the IEP and 504 plan process with confidence. La Cañada Flintridge is a small foothill city within the 91011 zip code, nestled near Pasadena and the Angeles National Forest. We bring more than 32 years of hands-on advocacy experience to every family we support here.
La Cañada Flintridge students attend La Cañada Unified School District (LCUSD), a small, high-performing district that operates La Cañada High School and the elementary schools La Cañada, Palm Crest, and Paradise Canyon. The district’s small size means families often work with the same team across multiple years.
LCUSD’s district office is located at 4490 Cornishon Avenue, La Cañada Flintridge, CA 91011 and can be reached at 818-952-8300 for special education and 504 inquiries. As a special education advocate La Cañada Flintridge families rely on, we help you build a collaborative relationship with the district team while making sure your child’s plan is written clearly and actually followed.
Every family’s situation looks different, whether it’s a first-time evaluation request, a 504 plan that isn’t being implemented consistently in the classroom, or an IEP that needs updated goals as your child grows. We meet La Cañada Flintridge families where they are and build a plan around what your child specifically needs — not a generic template.
