Every child is entitled to a public education regardless of disability. Children with disabilities may go without services because families are not fully aware of their options. We will help you through the process of having your child evaluated for special needs services.
After completing the evaluation process, parents can apply for their special needs children to attend any Canyons School District preschool program for free. Students with special education needs are placed in the same classrooms as all other students so that they will have role models in language and social skills.
