TAHLEQUAH, Okla. – Sequoyah Schools would like to help children with disabilities find appropriate services, as part of the Oklahoma Child Find initiative.

    Anyone who knows of a child who may be eligible for this service is encouraged to contact their local public school or Webb at Sequoyah Schools, P.O. Box 520, Tahlequah, Okla., 74465 or call (918) 453-5400.  All information shared will be kept confidential.
