The speech, language, & hearing program provides a continuum of services, including early identification, evaluation, therapy, and consultation. Speech therapy services are provided when it is documented that the student needs services to benefit from the educational program. These services are collaborative and focus on skills that promote attainment of educational objectives. Service delivery models may vary according to the needs of the student, and may include direct, consultative, and RTI tracking/monitoring services. Frequency of services is based on the student’s needs.

Communication disorders may be exhibited by an impairment in any one or combination of the following:

• Hearing

• Articulation

• Language

• Voice

• Fluency

Services are provided for students ages 3-21. Those who meet criteria may receive speech therapy in a Roane County school setting.
