Child Find notice
Child Find Notice

The Pocatello/Chubbuck School District, in cooperation with parents and nonpublic school agencies, engages in Child Find services throughout the school year. Child Find activities are conducted to (1) create public awareness of special education programs, (2) advise the public that students who qualify for services have the right to a free, appropriate public education and confidentiality protections, and (3) alert community residents that a process exists for identifying and serving children with disabilities from the age of 3 through the semester in which they turn 21.

Students who are enrolled in public schools, charter and alternative schools, private schools, home-schooled, highly mobile or wards of the state may be eligible for special education services through the Pocatello/Chubbuck School District. If you know of a child who is 3 through 21 years of age who may have individual needs that result from disabilities or developmental delays, and who is not enrolled in a school program, please contact Lynda Steenrod, Director of Special Services, at 235-3242 or the school district office at 232-3563. These children may have difficulty walking, talking, hearing, or learning, or may display behaviors that appear different from other children their age.
If you are part of a community agency or civic group that would like more information about educating children with disabilities, or would like pamphlets to distribute to members, please call the school district office or one of the above phone numbers.
