Early Childhood Screening It ’ s required , and as early as age three !

Did you know that screening is required in the state of Minnesota ? Screening allows health and developmental concerns to be addressed at least one to two years before a child enters kindergarten .

Screening is an early look at a child ’ s development and is conducted by qualified professionals to help identify specific needs a child may have in these areas :

• Fine and gross motor skills

• Vision and hearing

• Speech and language development

• Height and weight

• Cognitive development

• Immunizations

The state of Minnesota requires a health and development screening for every child before kindergarten entry in a public school . The Anoka-Hennepin School District offers this service at no cost . Screening should be completed before a child turns four years old , and we begin as early as three years of age .
