Lake Forest School District 67 & Lake Bluff School District 65
Preschool Screening, Friday, April 15, 2011

Lake Forest School District 67 and Lake Bluff School District 65 are providing a free educational screening on Friday, April 15, 2011 for preschool-age children who reside in Lake Forest and Lake Bluff.

Three, four, and five year-old children who have not entered Kindergarten are eligible for the preschool screening. The purpose of screening children is not for advance placement in school, but to help parents identify development lags in their children. Developmental delays can be observed in a child’s speech and language, fine and gross motor skills, learning ability, or emotional and social growth. Nurses also complete a brief vision and hearing screening.

It is not necessary for a child to be screened in all areas, only the areas with which there is concern. In order to participate, a child must be registered in advance. After the child is registered, a packet will be sent home. Parents are asked to complete several necessary forms, which should be brought on the day of the child’s screening.

To schedule a child’s preschool screening appointment, please contact: Carole Racansky, Department of Student Services, 847-604-7422.

Screening will take place at: Lake Forest School District 67 Administration Center, 300 S. Waukegan Road, Lake Forest, IL 60045. The Administration Center is located at the Lake Forest High School’s West Campus building on the second floor, and the screenings will take place in Seminar Rooms A, B, and C. Please park in the southwest lot and enter at the west (Athletic) entrance under the blue canopy.
