E.C.S.E. Preschool ProgramPreschool Program
The E.C.S.E. preschool program at Cotaco Elementary serves children age 3-5 years in eastern Morgan County who are experiencing difficulty in the following areas: vision, hearing speech and language, motor skills or learning. Any child in Morgan County may be referred for screening if developmental delays are suspected. Parents, family members, doctors or others may make referrals in the community. Screening services are provided at no charge. Preschool classes run Monday through Thursday from 8:00-11:00 or 12:00-3:00. A lead teacher, speech and language pathologist, and two paraprofessionals work together to provide a language-rich, structured environment where children can acquire developmentally appropriate skills through play and small group activities. If you have, or know of, a child experiencing delays in development, please contact Kim Dahlem, Preschool Coordinator at 309-2144
