SCHOOL NOTICES CHILd fINd Child Find refers to activities undertaken by public education agencies to identify, locate, and evaluate children residing in the State, including children attending private schools, who are suspected of having disabilities, regardless of the severity of their disability, and determine the child's need for special education and related services. The purpose is to locate these children so that a free appropriate public education can be made available. The types of disabilities that, if found, may cause a child to need services are: autism, deaf-blindness, deafness, emotional disturbance, hearing impairment, mental retardation, multiple disabilities, orthopedic impairment, other health impairment due to chronic or acute health problems, specific learning disabilities, speech or language impairment, traumatic brain injury and visual impairment including blindness. Parents who believe their child has a disability may request in writing, that an evaluation be conducted to determine if the child is eligible to receive special education services. Written requests should be sent to the Office of Student Support Services. Children placed by their parents in private schools located within the geographic boundaries of other public school districts should refer their children to the special education offices of the public school district in which the school is located. Children enrolled in private kindergarten and/or private school may also be referred by calling the Office at 220-3060. Children ages birth to 3 can access a variety of services to meet their individual needs through Westchester County Department of Health’s Early Intervention Program. Call 914-813-5094 for further information.

Please do not hesitate to call! Whenever possible, speak first to the person closest to the situation. If unable to help you, that person will refer you to the correct individual. If you have a general question and don’t know who to ask: Call the public information office at 220-3070. If your child has a problem in class: As much as possible, let your child handle it. 1. If necessary, first speak to the teacher. 2. If necessary, in high school, speak to the department chair, then guidance counselor. If the problem is not resolved, speak to the administrator (principal or assistant principal), who oversees the subject area. In elementary and middle school, speak to the principal. 3. Speak to the Assistant Superintendent most directly involved in overseeing the particular issue. 4. As a last step, contact the Superintendent. If you wonder about instruction, materials, program, operations: 1. Speak to the teacher. 2. If unresolved, speak to the principal. 3. If necessary, write to the superintendent.
