A free appropriate public education (FAPE) must be available to all children with disabilities residing in the Albuquerque Public Schools between the ages of 3 and 21, including children with disabilities who have been suspended or expelled from school. The process of identifying, locating, and evaluating these children is referred to as Child Find. Albuquerque Public Schools shall accept referrals, as per child find provisions, from any source that suspects a child may be eligible for special education and related services.
