What do I need to know about screening through Parents as Teachers?

  • What is developmental screening?

    Screening is a way of looking at your child in comparison to the development to other children his/her age.  It shows parents if their chlid is developing within the typical range for his/her age or in what areas the child may need support.  The developmental screening measures the progress of children in the areas of motor, language and social-emotional development.  A hearing and vision test will be included in the screening.

     

    If an area(s) is found to be developing more slowly than typical, we will suggest activities that you can use in strengthening the area(s) of concern.  Recommendations for diagnostic testing will be suggested for those perceived to need further evaluation.  

Screenings for Children Birth to 3 Years of Age

  • A complete annual screening includes development, hearing, vision and health.  

    Any family that has children under the age of 5 and lives within the boundaries served by the Kirkwood School District (regardless if you have a Parent Educator or not) is eligible for a free screening through PAT. Please reach out to our office at 314.213.6137 or kirkwoodpatmo@gmail.com with your interest and we will be happy to share your options and get you scheduled.
