Speech or language impairment means a communication disorder, such as stuttering, impaired articulation, language impairment, or a voice impairment, that adversely affects a child’s educational performance. Speech therapy services are provided from ages 3-21 for students who meet eligibility requirements based on an evaluation.

If you are concerned about your child's speech or language development, please contact the speech pathologist at your child's school to request an evaluation. If you need additional information, please contact Mary Kate Puna, Lead Speech Pathologist, at punam@pearlandisd.org.
