Integrated Preschool Services

Wadsworth City Schools offers preschool programming for students who are identified with a disability.  Our preschool program is housed at Lincoln Elementary School.  Services are provided based on severity of need, with itinerant services to center-based programming.  Our preschool is staffed by three licensed early childhood intervention specialists.  A speech and language therapist, occupational therapist and physical therapist are available for qualifying children.  If  you have a child who is between the ages of three and five and you believe your child may have a disability, contact our office to schedule a preschool screening.
