Special Education Child Find

Provo School District is responsible for Child Find identification and evaluation for all students suspected of having a disability residing in Provo. This includes children (birth through 21 years of age) who are in public schools, private schools, are being home schooled, are preschoolers (birth to five years) and are in need of an evaluation for possible special education or early intervention services. Early identification and intervention may be essential to your child’s development.

If your child is having significant difficulty with vision, hearing, speech, behavior, is experiencing slow development typical for his/her age, physical development or learning difficulty, he/she may be a child with a disability that requires specialized instruction through special education. If you suspect that your school age child may have a disability, please contact your neighborhood school principal or special education personnel.

If your child’s age is birth to three years, contact the Provo Early Intervention Program at 801-852-4525.

If your child’s age is three to five years, contact Sunrise Preschool at 801-374-4915.

If you need any information not contained in this announcement, contact the Provo Special Education Department at 801-374-4933.
