Screenings are for children ages 3 and older who are not enrolled in school.
Screening are conducted on the third Tuesday of the month during the school year in the Early Childhood classroom located at Rhinelander High School (665 Coolidge Ave., Rhinelander). Please come to Door #13. We have time slots available at 3:15 PM, 4:00 PM and 4:45. Each screening takes approximately 45 minutes, which includes time to review results and recommendations with parents and/or guardians.
A consent form is not required, as this is a screening, NOT an evaluation for Special Education.
We do NOT screen for isolated skill areas (for example, we do not conduct a screening for articulation only). Child Find Screenings are comprehensive in nature and address:
- Health and Physical Development (sleep habits, dressing, toileting, eating, writing, climbing, walking, running)
- Social and Emotional Development (expressing feelings, forming friendships, resolving conflicts)
- Language and Communication (listening and understanding)
- Approaches to Learning (curiosity and excitement about learning, persistence, approaches taken to learn new information)
- Cognition and General Knowledge (hypothesizes and making predictions, forms explanations based on trial-and-error/observations/explorations, understands color and number patterns)
If you have concerns in any of the above noted areas, please contact Alicia Juniku, School Psychologist to schedule an appointment. We look forward to working with you and your child!
