Child Find

School Administrative Unit 24, which consists of the Henniker, Weare, Stoddard and John Stark School Districts, seeks to locate and identify all children who may have an educational disability. Any person may refer for evaluation of a child under the age 21 for reasons including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Failing to pass a hearing or vision screening
  • Unsatisfactory performance on group achievement or accountability measures
  • Receiving multiple academic or behavioral warnings
  • Repeatedly failing one or more subject

The child find requirements of the district also apply to highly mobile children, homeless children, and children who are suspected of having an educational disability even though they are advancing from grade to grade. Child Find also includes those children in grades K-12 who attend approved, non-public private schools within the geographic boundaries of Henniker, Weare and Stoddard regardless of where they reside.

Referrals may be initiated in a variety of ways:

For children ages 3 through Kindergarten who do not yet attend school - Please contact the Building Coordinator/Assistant Principals in the district of residence.

For children who attend the public schools within SAU #24 - Building principals, special education coordinators, or classroom teachers may be contacted by anyone wishing to initiate a referral.
