The early childhood years from birth to the start of kindergarten are an important time of rapid learning and growth in your child’s life. Early Childhood Screening, provided by your local school district, is a free and simple check of how your child is growing, developing, and learning.
Your child is eligible for screening upon turning three, and it is recommended that your child be screened between the ages of three and four. You will need to provide your child’s Early Childhood Screening Summary Form in order for your child to start kindergarten in any Minnesota public school.
