EARLY CHILDHOOD SCREENING
The State of Minnesota requires all children to be screened prior to the start of kindergarten. HLWW schedules Early Childhood Screening events for families with young children throughout the school year. Screening at age three is preferred and recommended. Screening is most valuable when completed before your child turns four years old.
What is Early Childhood Screening:
Early Childhood Screening is a free and simple check of how your child is growing, developing and learning! At a screening appointment a trained professional will play with your child and screen different areas of their development including: vision, hearing, height, weight, immunization progress, large/small muscle development (fine and gross motor), thinking skills, language, communication skills, cognitive development, and social and emotional development.
Why is Early Childhood Screening Important:
Screening helps identify children who may benefit from early childhood services before they enter school and connects them with appropriate resources and programs. If your child has already been screened, he/she does not need to be screened again.
