FREEHOLD TOWNSHIP — The Freehold Township Elementary and Middle School District is conducting an ongoing community-wide effort to find and help children in need of special education programs due to a physical, emotional or learning difficulty.
In order to qualify for the preschool disabled program within the district, a child must be 3 to 5 years old and not eligible for kindergarten in September 2010.
A child turning 3 during the 2010-11 school year would be eligible for the preschool program. The child must also have a suspected or diagnosed disability in either communication, motor, cognitive, emotional, visual or hearing skills.
Evaluations to determine eligibility for the special education program are conducted by the Freehold Township Elementary and Middle School District at no cost to parents of Freehold Township children.
For further information about this program, call the Department of Educational Services at 732-431-9355.
