Offers special education services to children with disabilities ages 3 through graduation or through age 22. Students are identified through a full and individual evaluation and individualized education plan conference process. Students are referred through their school for social, emotional, and academic problems which significantly interfere with the student's progress in school. Prior to the evaluation and placement, a parent must be involved and give consent. Children may not be evaluated or placed without this parental permission. Children may be referred by the child's parent, teacher, or other individual who knows the child and his/her difficulties. Direct referrals by individuals outside the school building should contact the building principal. School psychologists, social workers, speech pathologists, and other relate.
