The Monticello School District is holding Child Find on Wednesday, April 4, 2018, from 2:00 p.m.-6:00 p.m. Child Find is for any child 3-5 years of age, which includes children who will be entering 4K and/or Kindergarten in September of 2018. If your child attended a previous screening it is not necessary to attend unless you feel the need to do so.
What is Child Find?
Child Find is a statewide program that helps identify children with potential needs. Parents will be asked questions regarding their child’s development, and screenings by school professionals will be completed to identify strengths and potential concerns. Screenings last between 30-60 minutes per student.
Why is Child Find Important?
Child Find helps the child, the family, and school district identify possible needs and link families to services for students who may require early intervention. Community partners work together to positively impact the lives of young children and their families, encompassing the areas of early care and education, health, mental health, parent education and family support.
Child Find will be conducted in the 4K classroom at the Monticello Elementary School.
