    It’s time for kindergarten!

    Schedule Preschool Screening
    Early Childhood Developmental Screening is a check of a child’s development, vision and hearing,
    growth, health history and immunizations. Screening is recommended when a child is three to
    four years old and must be completed before starting kindergarten in a Minnesota public school.
    Screening is free and takes approximately one hour. A parent or legal guardian stays with the child
    during the screening process. Screening is conducted at the Edina Community Center.

    Screenings are done by appointment only. Screenings take place on:
    • Thursdays from 1 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.
    • Fridays from 8 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
    • Saturdays from 8 a.m. to Noon

    Appointments are scheduled every 30 minutes on the half hour. Please call to schedule an
    appointment: 952-848-4299. For further information, visit www.edinaschools.org/screening.
