• Preschool Screening

    Columbia Public Schools offers free developmental screening for children ages three to five (non-kindergarten).  This screening is the first step to see if a child would qualify for any preschool services offered by Columbia Public Schools.  Screening is a developmental check-up, similar to the physical check-up a child has with a doctor.  The purpose is to assure that each child is developing as expected for their age level.  Screening checks key areas of development such as:

    Speech and language
    Concepts
    Motor skills
    Vision and hearing
    Health
