The Oxford Township School District recognizes the importance of providing services to young children with special needs through its Project Child Find efforts. The Office of Special Services can provide assessments for children three to five years of age who appear to have problems in communication, motor, social-emotional, or learning areas. Children who are found to be eligible for special education and related services are entitled to a free, appropriate public education.
