Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE) provides special services including evaluation and intervention to children from birth through age six who demonstrate delays in cognitive, communication, motor, self-help, or personal-social areas of development. Together with parents, the ECSE team will determine the appropriate evaluation measures to determine the child's skill level.

Children from birth to age three who are eligible for services will receive those services in a natural environment, such as home or daycare by an ECSE teacher, occupational therapist, or speech/language pathologist. Services and program goals will be outlined in a written document developed by parents and ECSE staff.

A variety of classroom options will be provided for children ages 3 through 6 to address each child's individualized needs. Services and program goals to best meet each child's needs will be outlined in a written document developed by parents and ECSE staff.
