Preschool Screening

 Preschool Screening

CCSD 46 is offering in-person monthly screenings as part of Child Find. Child Find is an ongoing process through which all children, from birth through 21 (i.e., through the day before the student’s 22nd birthday), or who may be eligible for early intervention, or who may be in need of special education services are identified, located, and evaluated.

Families must complete and return the required documents before a screening appointment will be offered. CCSD 46 accepts screening requests for children ages 3-5 years who meet the following criteria:

  • Child MUST live within CCSD 46 boundaries.
  • Child MUST be three years old at the time of screening.
  • Five-year-olds must have turned five AFTER September 1.

Families can request a Preschool screening by calling Sue Hobson at 847-543-6204.
