Speech and Language

Speech and language therapy services are provided to students ages 3- Grade 8 years who have speech and/or language needs which limit their ability to communicate and/or interfere with their acquisition and retention of academic skills.

A variety of therapy service models are available depending upon individual student needs. Students may benefit from direct service therapy sessions, consultative services provided to educational teams, or therapy integrated within the student's educational program. The type and amount of therapy services are determined during the evaluation process.

Questions regarding evaluations and services for children ages 3-4 years may obtained by calling the Maine Township Early Childhood Center. Questions regarding referral procedures and service delivery for children ages 5-12 should be directed to the Speech and Language Department Chair.
