Preschool Program

The Sonoma County Office of Education offers a variety of learning experiences for preschoolers who require special education services. Children who are 3 to 5 years old can receive instruction geared to their individual needs. Special day classes, programs that build mobility skills, specialized services for young children on the autism spectrum, counseling and mental health services, and remedial speech and language instruction are among the many services available. Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) are developed for each student by a team that includes the child’s parents or caregivers and the SCOE teachers, specialists, and administrators who will be working with the child. Approximately 160 students are served by this program annually.

The Preschool Program offers a variety of special programs, including:

  • Special Day Classes
  • Co-Enrolled Head Start Classes
  • Mobility Opportunities Via Education (MOVE)
  • Infant School/Home Autism Program through Education (InSHAPE)
  • School/Home Autism Program through Education (SHAPE)
  • School/Home Intervention Program for Preschool Students (SHIPS)

Additional information about these programs can be found in the applicable program brochures (see Program Brochures box above). Please see the Referral Process page for details on referring students to the SCOE Preschool Program.
