Child Find is a continuous process of public awareness activities, screening and evaluation designed to locate, identify, and refer as early as possible all young children with disabilities and their families who are in need of an Early Intervention Program (Part C) or Early Childhood Special Education (Part B) services of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).

The developmental areas to be screened include the following skills; · Social/Emotional—how your child interacts with others and with their surroundings · Expressive & Receptive Language– how your child uses and understands language, and articulates sounds · Gross Motor—how your child performs age-appropriate skills such as jumping, climbing, and accessing playground equipment · Fine Motor—how your child manipulates toys, everyday items, and writing tools. · Cognitive—how your child demonstrates cognitive skills such as matching, color recognition, reasoning questions, and following directions. ******************************** Bay Harbor Playground Expansion Project This QR code will take you directly to our “Go Fund Me” page - or Click here.

After 42 years, Campbell’s Labels for Education is discontinuing the program at the end of this school year. Some of you may have noticed already that some of the products (Pepperidge Farm Goldfish & Spaghettios for instance) no longer have the Labels for Education logo around the UPCs. You can continue to send in labels until the end of the school year. We have used this program to purchase playground balls and sidewalk chalk for recess so I will be placing our final order in June. More information can be found here as well as a current list of participating products. www.labelsforeducation.com Thank you, Dawn Brandt Attention parents and guardians of 4th Graders!
