Child Find
Child Find is a process that identifies, evaluates, and locates children who may have disabilities and need special education services. It's a federal requirement that applies to children from birth to age 21, including those who are homeschooled or in private school.
The purpose of Child Find is to ensure that children with disabilities receive the services they are entitled to. The process includes: Screening students for disabilities, Evaluating children in natural situations, and Notifying parents of their right to request an evaluation.
Anyone can start the Child Find process, including parents, guardians, teachers, doctors, relatives, or friends. To start the process, you can contact our Special Services Office by emailing SpecialServices@psd267.org or calling (509) 332-3144.
