Williamson County Schools offers an extensive Speech and Language program to eligible students with communication needs.  Services are available in the areas of speech sound production, language, fluency (stuttering), and voice.  Each school in Williamson County has a qualified Speech and Language Pathologist on staff. To receive services, the student must meet eligibility standards set forth by the Tennessee State Department of Education and the Individualized Education Team (IEP team) must determine that the communication delay adversely affects educational performance. Services may include direct therapy, inclusion in the student’s classroom, consultation, or collaboration with the other educators.  The Speech Language Pathologist works closely with both general and special education staff to ensure that students are provided services that integrate curricular areas with the student’s communication goals and objectives written in the Individualized Educational Plan (IEP)
