Child Find Information and Process

When a public agency or parent suspects that a child may have a disability, they shall provide, in writing, the reason for referral, addressing the specific presenting concerns and the child’s current strengths and needs. This referral shall be given to the principal of the school, the child’s teacher, or other school professional of the LEA.

For preschool children with disabilities, the referral may also be given to the designated person in charge of services for preschool children with disabilities.
