Child Find

In compliance with state and federal law, notice is hereby given by BCTHS that it conducts ongoing identification activities as a part of its school program for the purpose of identifying students who may be in need of special education and related services (eligible students). If your child is identified by BCTHS as possibly in need of such services, you will be notified of applicable procedures. Individualized services and programs are available for children who are determined to need specially designed instruction. If you believe that your school-age child may be in need of special services, the school counselor should be contacted. In compliance with state and federal law, BCTHS will provide to each protected handicapped student, without discrimination or cost to the student or family, those related aids, services, or accommodations which are needed to provide equal opportunity to participate in and obtain the benefits of the school program and extracurricular activities within an inclusion model or life skills model. 

Chapter 15 – Protected Handicapped Students/504 In compliance with state and federal law, BCTHS will provide those related aids, services or accommodations that are needed for each protected handicapped student, an equal opportunity to participate in and obtain the benefits of the school program and extracurricular activities to the maximum extent appropriate to the student’s needs. These related aids, services or accommodations will be provided without discrimination or cost to the student or family. To qualify as a protected handicapped student, the child must be of school age with a physical or mental disability that substantially limits or prohibits participation in or access to an aspect of the school program. For further information regarding the evaluation process and provision of services under a 504 Service Plan, contact your school counselor. 

Confidentiality: All information gathered about your child is subject to the confidentiality provisions contained in federal and state law. BCTHS has policies and procedures in effect governing the collection, maintenance, destruction, and disclosure to third parties of this information.
