Bolton Public Schools
2022 Child Find and Preschool Screening
Bolton Public Schools will be holding a screening for preschool children
Who can participate?
- Do you have questions about your child’s development? If so, you can bring your child to the screening. This is just a screening, not an evaluation. We screen for possible developmental delays and will determine whether your child is functioning within age appropriate limits or is in need of further evaluation.
- Would you like your child to be considered as a peer model for the 2022-2023 preschool class? In order to be considered as a possible peer model your child will need to be screened. We are looking for 3 and 4 year olds who demonstrate age appropriate communication, social, play, and motor skills. Children must turn 3 years of age before the first day of school and must be Bolton residents.
How is the screening conducted?
The screening takes about 30 minutes. This year the screening will take place outside. While you complete a developmental history in your car, your child will play with members of the Preschool Team. Through play, the Preschool Team will be looking to gather information regarding your child’s communication, social, play, and motor skills.
When and where does the screening take place?
Wednesday April 27 (rain date: Thursday, April 28) on the Bolton Center School grounds (please park at the Senior Center and we will meet you there). Screening times are: 12:30-1:00, 1:15-1:45, and 2:00-2:30.
How can I sign my child up for this screening?
If you are interested in having your preschool child screened, please complete and return the application by April 20, 2022. (available on the district website: www.boltonpublicschools.com). We will get back to you with a time. Please email or mail your completed application to:
