Enrollment Steps

Step 1

The very first step to joining our preschool family is a quick and friendly Early Childhood Screening. We host these free developmental screenings throughout the school year to see how your child is growing.

What do we look at?

We take a peek at all the ways your child is developing, including:

  • Early concepts (learning and thinking skills)
  • Speech and language (how they communicate)
  • Motor skills (moving and playing)
  • Social & self-help skills (playing with others and independence)
  • Hearing and vision

If our team notices any areas where your child might need a little extra boost or specialized support, we will guide you through the next steps for a special education evaluation and early intervention.
