Preschool Screenings

District 34 conducts free monthly developmental screenings for any resident in our school district boundaries, ages 3-5 years old.

During D34 Preschool's screening process, a child's vision, hearing, speech, language, and development will be assessed. Most students attend the program for free through the Preschool for All Grant (PFA). Eligibility is based on factors such as language learner status, student ability, and household income.

If you are interested in your child participating in a screening, fill out the application below. Make sure to select "Preschool screening" in the dropdown menu. After you complete the application, the D34 Preschool team will contact you to schedule a developmental screening. Enrollment in Preschool may occur at any time based on space availability.
