In California schools we don’t automatically screen anymore. It is all based on teacher and parent referral

When we can’t take kids for therapy (teachers get upset), put them on “monitor status”

Say something like:

“He is still quite young, so I will re-check him again in January. If he still doesn’t technically qualify for speech, I can re-screen him in first grade.”
