Parents are a child’s first teacher and are key to a child’s overall growth. The Kettle Moraine School District strives to establish partnerships with families early in a child’s development to ensure the best opportunity for success when a child enters school.
If you live in the Kettle Moraine School District and have concerns about your child who is between the ages 3 and 5 years old and has not yet attended kindergarten, consider scheduling a free screening. The District Early Childhood Team will facilitate a screening where each child will participate in a variety of play-based activities to assess communication, gross and fine motor skills, social/emotional development, and pre-academic skills.
