Early Childhood Screening
Early Childhood Screening
Children entering Kindergarten need to have had an Early Childhood Screening prior to enrollment to begin school. The screening is a quick and simple check of how your child is doing at the age of 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 years old. During the screening, well-qualified staff will check your child's vision, hearing, growth, immunization status, skills in thinking, communication and language, large and small muscles and social/emotional development. The screening is free of charge to families through the school district.

The MN Department of Education provides funding to the district for preschool programs based on the number of children, ages 0-4, we have on record. We need to count you in, and we have important information to share with you! If you have children in your household from 0-4 years of age and you have not received school district mailings, or if you have moved into the district during the past year, please take a moment to let us know about your children by calling the Elementary School at 320-968-7286. We can inform you about early childhood screening and interesting classes and activities for you and your child.
