Idaho Child Find
SOME CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES ARE NOT IN
SCHOOL
Child Find
is a service that finds and screens preschool children’s growth and
development, and informs older students with delays of available
services.
It is important to ask questions about your child’s
development when he/she is young, since that is the time of the greatest
growth and development.
Preschool skills of thinking, moving, and talking form the
foundation for later school success.
Does your child:
◊ have difficulty interacting appropriately with
peers?
◊ have difficulty following/remembering directions?
◊ become restless or have an excessive activity
level?
◊ have speech difficulties?
◊ have behavior which differs significantly from
peers?
If these or other areas of behavior concern you, contact
your local school district about its screening program and services
available to those who qualify for special education.
