Child Find 2026

 
Child Find is a Special Education law that requires all school districts to identify, locate, and evaluate all children with disabilities, regardless of the severity of their disability. Schools are required to do this for all children with disabilities from birth through age 21. The Child Find mandate applies to all children who reside within the state, including children who attend private and public schools, highly mobile children, migrant children, homeless children, and children who are wards of the state.
 
Asotin-Anatone Public Schools Child Find is a developmental screening for children ages 3-5 to determine whether further evaluation for special education services is needed.   If you suspect your child (ages 3-5) may have a disability in one or more of the areas listed below, please contact us to set up a developmental screening. 

• Cognitive (thinking skills)
• Speech/Language
• Adaptive (self-help skills)
• Motor skills
