4 in 10 children will begin kindergarten already behind.

Kindergarten is school. Help your child be prepared for their first day of kindergarten and set them on a path to success for the rest of their education. Access classes and resources in your own Salem/Keizer-area neighborhood to ensure they reach their developmental goals.

DID YOU KNOW?

There’s an assessment to help determine your child’s progress. The Ages and Stages Questionnaires (for children from birth to age 6) reveals a child’s strengths as well as areas where they may benefit from extra practice or support.

If a child’s developmental challenge is identified late, it can impact their life in significant ways. Early detection can help a child get appropriate care and help foster developmental growth
