FHSD Preschool Program Peer Model Application 
 If you have concerns about your child’s development OR a teacher, therapist, or doctor has expressed concerns about your child, please DO NOT complete this Peer Model application. Instead, please call the Preschool Administrative Assistant, Alysson Beck, at 513-231-3600 extension 2950. 

The FHSD preschool program at Sherwood Elementary School is designed to meet the diverse needs of all students by creating an engaging community of learners ages 3 to 5 years old.  Preschool classes meet Monday through Thursday. AM Session:  8:45 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. PM Session:  12:30 p.m. to 3:15 p.m. 

All school districts are required by federal law to provide special education and related services for preschool-age students who are identified with a disability. The Forest Hills Preschool Program integrates preschool students who are typically developing (peer models) with children who have identified needs and require an Individualized Education Program (IEP).
