The Early Childhood Special Education Services differ from other Early Education programs in that it provides specific support for children with special needs and the services are determined on an individual basis. The different service delivery models serve children who are three and four years old that have been determined, through a special education IEP Team evaluation, to have an identified disability and meet the criteria to receive these services. A child must qualify to receive these services.

We provide a continuum of service delivery models in different settings. Two of the service delivery models that are solely in the special education setting, within one of the KUSD school buildings, are the Early Learners Program and the Speech Impact Program and they are listed below.

If you are interested in having your child evaluated to determine if they demonstrate delayed learning and/or delayed speech and language skills, please contact the Early Childhood/Speech and Language Diagnostic Office at 262-359-7683.
