community resources 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.
