Kindergarten Screening 

It is time to plan for kindergarten screening again.  All screening will take place at the Brunswick Curtis Memorial Library, 23 Pleasant St., in Brunswick.

Screening Dates: Monday, May 20

Tuesday, May 21

Wednesday, May 22

Thursday, May 23

A child must be five years old on or before October 15, 2013, and reside in Brunswick.  Parents should call the Superintendent’s Office at 319-1900 after April 1, to register for screening.  We are unable to handle walk-ins that do not have appointments.

Kindergarten students will be enrolled in Coffin School.  Placement will be determined in order to balance class sizes and enroll students in appropriate special education classes.

Screening Process: Children will be screened by appointment for vision,
hearing, speech and language development, cognitive functioning, and fine motor
and gross motor development.  Our screening procedure is designed to provide a profile of each student’s abilities and readiness for school.  This process will help our teachers plan to meet the individual needs of each child.

Parents will be receiving a letter with the time and date of their child’s appointment in a packet with other information.
