"Child Find": Special Education For Pupils Ages 3-21

Programs for children ages 3 through 21 are conducted in Westwood Schools. These programs are for children who have an identified disabling condition and/or a measurable developmental delay in physical, social, communication, and/or emotional areas, and who may require and would benefit from special educational and related services. Eligibility for these services is determined by a Child Study Team evaluation of the child.

Any resident who has a child, ages 3 through 21 years, who may require special services, should contact the Westwood Regional Schools Department of Special Services at 201-664-0880 x 2031.
