Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE) serves children from
birth to age 7. Our class at Pine Island Schools serves ages 3-7.
Our class is in session on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursday, and
Friday afternoons. Wednesday afternoons are for home visits.
Each week our curriculum revolves around a theme. Our art,
group time, and other activities are based on that weekly theme.
Some children receive Occupational Therapy (OT), Physical Therapy
(PT), and Speech services during our class time activities.
If you have any concerns about your child's development, please
contact the school nurse or Melissa
Zenner- mzenner@pineisland.k12.mn.us at Pine Island Schools.
