Early Learning | Early Childhood Screening | September 25, 2026Early Childhood ScreeningEarly Childhood Screening is recommended for all children between the ages of three to five years. The best age to screen at is roughly three years, six months. Its purpose is to affirm a child’s development and identify any early needs for educational assistance or community resources. It is a snapshot of your child on that particular day and time, not a predictor of future success. It is also a state requirement in order to attend Kindergarten at a public school in Minnesota. This free screening includes a review of all growth and development, immunizations, hearing and vision. Sign up online at www.westonkace.org or call (952) 491-8580 to schedule an appointment.

Parents who have questions or concerns before their child turns age three should call (952) 933-GROW. Any additional questions can be directed to Sarah Grimm, Program Coordinator, at (952) 491-8580 or grimms@westonka.k12.mn.us.
