SCHOOL YEARS: At what age should my child begin public school and pre-school programs?
As early as possible! When Billy was born, there were no early intervention or pre-school programs. Now free appropriate public education is provided to all eligible preschool students with disabilities for ages 3 to 5 and early intervention programs for infants and toddlers with disabilities ages birth through age two. I am so glad that parents now have access to professional help and inviting environments. Another advantage to such programs is the opportunity to interact with other children – a valuable learning situation.
