Dear Parents,
Do you have questions or concerns about your child’s development?  A Preschool screening could help you find some answers.
  • Talk to your child’s pediatrician, preschool teacher or daycare provider about your concerns.  You do not have to wait to see if your child “will outgrow it.”  You can address those concerns now by coming to the REACH Early Childhood Program for a free screening for your child.
  • On the day of the screening a Development History form needs to be completed. The Preschool Screening process takes 45 minutes to an hour and involves both you and your child.  Your child will play “games” (which target articulation, language, reasoning, and motor skills) with members of the Preschool Team.  At the same time, you and another staff member will discuss your child’s self-help skills, social-emotional development as well as review your child’s group experience.
  • This is just a screening, not an evaluation.  It screens for the presence of possible developmental delays.  This screening will result in a determination as to whether your child performance appears typical for a child their age or is in need of further evaluation.
  • Sometimes a consultation or visit to your child’s nursery school or daycare setting is needed to complete the screening process.  You will be asked to sign a permission form before this can be done.
  • Direct contact from your child’s pediatrician is always welcome.

The REACH Early childhood Team includes a Speech/Language Pathologist, an Occupational Therapist, a Physical Therapist, and a Preschool Special Ed. Teacher, a School Psychologist, and an Administrator.
A referral for an evaluation of your child can be made at anytime if you have concerns.
