Child Search Screenings
Posted on 08/29/2022
The St. James Parish School District identifies, locates, and evaluates all children, birth through 21 years of age, suspected of having a disability and needing special education and/or related services within its jurisdiction. If a parent or family member is concerned about a child’s development, they may contact the Parish Child Search Coordinator to schedule a developmental screening. If the child is between birth-3 years old, a referral will be made to Early Steps. The St. James Parish will screen children aged 2 years, nine months old through school-age (5 years old). These procedures are outlined below. If you would like to schedule a preschool screening, please contact the Parish Child Search Office at 225.258.4523.
