therapy services, resource center programs and self-contained special

learning disability teacher consultant (LDT-C) and where appropriate,
speech language therapists. The Team helps children who are

in an educational disability. The Child Study Team also acts as a
consultant for general education teachers and parents in other special
needs situations.
