COWLEY COUNTY SPECIAL SERVICES COOPERATIVE

Young children's needs should be identified as soon as possible, so that early interventions may be provided. A screening is a quick look at the developmental areas to assist in determining whether a child should be referred for an initial evaluation. FREE Early Childhood Screenings are held each month through out the county. Please call 620-221-7021 to make an appointment. The Cowley County Special Education Cooperative is seeking to identify every student from birth through age 21 who lives within the boundaries of the school districts in Cowley County and Cedar Vale who has developmental delays or may be in need of special education. If you have a child or know of a child who you think has development delays or special needs, contact the cooperative at 620-221-7021. Areas of special education include: early childhood-disability, developmentally delayed, visual impairments including blindness, hearing impairments including deafness, deaf-blindness, autism, traumatic brain injury, emotional disturbance, specific learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities, multiple disabilities, orthopedic impairments, other health impairments, speech or language impairments and gifted.
