Annually the district conducts developmental screening of preschool children. Each child's motor, communication, and social skills are observed at various play areas. Each child is weighed and measured, and the child's hearing and vision is checked. The information is used to provide the parent with a profile of their child's current development and to provide suggestions for follow-up activities. Parents learn about community services available to them and speak with representatives of agencies serving families. The information from screening is also used to determine whether a child should be evaluated for a suspected disability, they refer the child for evaluation by a school district Individualized Education Program (IEP) team. The Ashwaubenon School District Child Development Days screening program for preschoolers takes place each spring. Dates will be advertised when the schedule is set.
