SPECIAL EDUCATION

SPECIAL EDUCATION AT ORONDO SCHOOL

Orondo School District recognizes that some students require special instruction and/or services to achieve success in school. We are committed to helping you identify the services your child may need.

Child Identification Procedures

As a member of the Educational Service District 112 Special Education ESA, Orondo School District conducts childfind activities for the purpose of locating, evaluating, and identifying individuals with a suspected disability who are residing within district boundaries, whether or not they are enrolled in the public school system.

​

Childfind activities apply to individuals aged birth through 21 years who are not currently receiving special education and related services. Parents having concerns about their child’s health, hearing, intellectual functioning, language, learning, movement, serious behavioral needs, speech, or vision can contact your child's school by contacting the principal or special education teacher at 509-784-1333 or contact the Educational Service District 112 at 800-233-0067. 

​

What is Child Find Screenings? Screenings are provided free to families and available to all children, including highly mobile children, migrant children, homeless children, and children who are wards of the state. Areas screened are: communication, motor, cognitive, social and self-help. After a screening is completed a formal assessment may be recommended to determine eligibility for services in one or more of the developmental areas. Early identification can make a difference in a child's future school success.
