The early childhood years are an important time of rapid learning and growth. Early Childhood Screening is a FREE service offered by District 110 that will check a child’s overall development and health. Children are screened by a licensed early childhood teacher and staff. Results of the screening help identify any learning or health concerns that may require attention before a child enters kindergarten.
In Minnesota all children are required to complete Early Childhood Screening before kindergarten entrance however, it is not a test for kindergarten. The preferred age to screen is between 3 and 4 years old.
Early Childhood Screening includes
- A look at your child’s development
- Vision and hearing checks
- Height and weight measurements
- Immunization and health history review
