Speech Therapy Services:
Speech therapy is considered to be a form of special education. All students at Olympia South, preschool through 5th grade, who qualify for speech and language services may receive speech therapy services. Speech therapy students have an Individual Education Plan (IEP). Students may be dismissed from speech at any time if it is determined they are no longer in need of services or they have met their IEP goals.
FLEX therapy:
FLEX therapy is a "speech therapy intervention" provided on a short term as needed basis. Oftentimes FLEX therapy may be provided to students who are having difficulty producing a particular speech sound to help them learn to produce sounds they are having difficulty with.
Preschool Screenings:
DIAL preschool screenings are conducted 2 times per year. Components of the DIAL screening include language/concepts, speech, motor, vision, and hearing. In order to be considered for enrollment in the PreK program students must first have completed the DIAL screenings. Please see the Olympia website for screening dates.
