Early Childhood Special Education
The Early Childhood Center provides classroom programming and services for children ages 2 years and 9 months-5 years of age who have been evaluated by our Special Education team and found eligible for these programs and services.
Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE)
The goal of the Early Childhood Special Education Program is to meet the individualized developmental needs of children ages 2 years and 9 months-5 years of age who qualify under the Michigan criteria for a disability. The program is designed for students who demonstrate delays in one or more areas of development, including cognitive, communication, motor, social-emotional, or adaptive skills. ECSE provides a structured, play-based learning environment with embedded supports and interventions to foster school readiness, independence, and foundational learning skills.
ECSE School schedule is 8:40a-11:40a Monday-Thursday
Ready Set Pre-K School schedule is 12:30p-3:15p Monday-Thursday
