Winnetka Families and Winnetka School District 36 and New Trier Township High School District 203: Where Emotional Regulation Coaching Fits
What Winnetka School District 36 and New Trier Township High School District 203 publish about requesting school supports, and how coaching runs alongside them.
Section 504 requests: Winnetka School District 36
District 36 directs a parent who thinks a student may qualify under Section 504 to the building principal or the Director of Student Services, Equity and Inclusion, and links its Section 504 policy, procedures, and procedural safeguards.
District source →Special education referrals: Winnetka School District 36
A parent, teacher, or principal can refer a child to the school's Student Support Team; if the team considers a special education evaluation, the district asks parents to help choose the evaluations and gets written consent before any evaluation starts.
District source →Section 504 requests: New Trier Township High School District 203
New Trier says a family can ask for Section 504 consideration at any time by returning the district's forms to the student's adviser, and that the eligibility process usually takes two to three weeks.
District source →Special education referrals: New Trier Township High School District 203
Parents, teachers, or advocates who believe a student needs more support or special education services can refer the student to the Child Find Team; referral forms come from the Graduating Class Team's administrative assistant on each campus.

New Trier houses freshmen on its Northfield campus and sophomores, juniors, and seniors on its Winnetka campus, so a Winnetka family's high school years split across two buildings.
