Early Childhood Screening

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, Early Childhood Screenings are being conducted using a distance model. To schedule your appointment, please contact Jenna at 952-928-6774 or reynolds.jenna@slpschools.org.

Early Childhood Screening

Screening is free and includes growth, development, and immunization check. The state of Minnesota requires all children to be screened before entering kindergarten. The screening is most valuable soon after your child turns 3 years old.

Screening includes a vision, hearing, and developmental assessment, as well as a opportunity to discuss any family circumstance that you feel may affect your child’s learning readiness.
The screening will help identify any area your child may benefit from early childhood services before they enter school, and connect families with appropriate resources and programs.
Screenings are conducted at Central Clinic (enter from 35th St. & Wooddale Ave., entrance #7 – Central Clinic).

* Appointments are required.

Please Note: Entrance to Central Clinic is in the back of the building on the 35th Street side of Central Community Center. Please enter at door #7.

*For your child to have the best experience please make childcare arrangements for siblings.
