●Parents will bring their students into the lobby of the school and a staff member will escort them to their screening location.
●Kindergarten Screening will last approximately 1 hour.
●Students will be screened for Kindergarten readiness, speech, hearing and vision.
●A parent’s cell phone number will be obtained at the time of screening; parents will be required to wait outside or in their cars until their student is finished. A staff member will contact you to come back in to pick up your student.
