Screening is required for all children attending Anoka-Hennepin Schools Preschool.
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:

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 five years old, and we begin as early as three years
of age.
