Child find activities need to be conducted annually at each school site to help identify children with possible special education needs. One child find activity involves informing the general education staff of the process you have at your school site for referring at-risk children.

Please provide a copy of the memorandum that has been sent to applicable personnel regarding the requirements as related to Child Find in 34 CFR Section 303.321(e), and

EC sections 56205(3) and 56300. Acceptable evidence would include the memorandum with a list of recipient names, titles, and signatures indicating they have reviewed the requirements.

 

To meet this obligation, you can either hold a staff meeting where your special education specialists provide an overview of the procedures involved or you can give each teacher a copy of your student study team referral process.
