Dear School Readiness Families:
 

Beginning on March 31, 2021, families receiving School Readiness funding will have the option to complete the ASQ questionnaires online for all children ages birth through kindergarten eligibility (66 months).  

 

What is Developmental Screening?

  • Have you ever wondered..."How is my child doing?". Many parents and other caregivers often ask themselves that question.
     
  • From birth to 5 years old, a child should reach milestones in how he/she plays, learns, speaks, acts and moves.
     
  • A developmental screening is a brief and simple process (sometimes a short test or questionnaire that you complete), that takes a closer look at how your child is developing and can tell if he or she is learning basic skills or if there are delays.

 

 
What do I need to know?
 
  • Families will be given the option to screen children using the Ages and Stages Questionnaire, 3rd Edition (ASQ-3) and Ages and Stages Questionnaire Social-Emotional, 2nd Edition (ASQ-SE2)
     
  • If you choose to complete the screening please set aside about an hour of time to do so in its entirety.
     
  • If you choose to defer the screening, your child’s childcare provider will be responsible for completing it.
     
  • Screening results will be available to you on the family portal.
     
  • If you would like to update your consent settings please reach out to the Child Care Resource and Referral (CCR&R) team, 561-514-3300
     
  • Please watch the helpful videos to show you how to complete the enrollment and screening questionnaires.
