Groton Parents, Do You Have A Four-Year-Old in the House?

Any child who will be 4 on or before January 1, 2014 is encouraged to be screened for Pre-Kindergarten.

The screening process is used to determine eligibility.  Children scoring within a target range will be selected for the program.  The goal of this program is to provide eligible children with an opportunity to acquire appropriate readiness skills needed for a successful kindergarten experience.

Children with strong skills in the areas of readiness, language, and socialization, act as peer role models in the Integrated Special Needs Preschool program.  A lottery process for the program selects children with eligible screening scores. Peer role models must be toilet trained.

Screenings are by appointment only. Please call at 860-572-2100 for appointment. The screening is Wednesday Dec. 4, with two sessions:

Session 1: 12:30 – 1:30 p.m.

Session 2: 1:45 – 2:45 p.m.

Screenings will be held at Mary Morrisson, Catherine Kolnaski , Charles Barnum and S. B. Butler elementary schools. Call  (860) 572-2100 for more information.
