Early Childhood Screening is a check on how your child is growing and developing. Early Childhood Screening helps you find out how your child is doing & connect you and your child to early childhood programs and other community services.

What happens during Screening?

Trained professionals will check your child’s:

• Vision & Hearing
• Health History
• Immunization Records
• Height/Weight/Growth
• Skills in Thinking
• Communication & Language
• Large/Small Muscles
• Social/Emotional Development

All of this information is important for your child’s continued learning and readiness for future school success. Screening is required for entrance into kindergarten. However, this is not a kindergarten readiness screening. Ideally, this screening will take place when a child is 3 years old.
