Our Migrant and Special Services Department

Our Migrant and Special Services Department provides services to many students here at Willcox Unified. We oversee programs such as ELL, Title One, special education, and the homeless and migrant programs. If you would like more information about our programs or would like to apply for services, please stop by our office or give us a call. We will be happy to talk with you about how we can help support your child in school.

Child Find

Willcox Unified School District offers Child Find screening to locate, identify, and evaluate all children from birth to 21 who may have a disability. If you know a child who has a disability or one you suspect may have difficulty with learning, communication, vision, hearing, behavior, or motor control and coordination, please contact the principal of your child’s school or the Special Education Department at the district. 

Willcox Unified School District screens children from preschool through high school. We refer infants and toddlers with disabilities to the Arizona Early Intervention Program (AzEIP) for evaluation and services. Preschool screenings are conducted throughout the year and can be scheduled through the special education office. Referrals for school-age children are screened through student intervention teams at each campus. Referrals may be made by teachers or parents. All Child Find referrals are considered confidential, and services are provided at no cost to the family. If it is determined that a full evaluation is needed, informed written parent consent is obtained prior to evaluation. Evaluations are completed within 60 days of informed parent consent.
