Early Childhood Screening 2025

The Hoosac Valley Regional School District will be conducting a developmental preschool and Kindergarten screening for the 2025-2026 school year. All non-enrolled Adams and Cheshire 3- and 4-year-olds can be screened on March 10, 11, or 12, 2025.

The purpose of the screening is to identify children who may have a developmental disability in communication, cognitive/thinking, social/emotional or motor development and if that disability may impact their access to education.

Appointments can be made by calling the Student Services Office at 413-743-2939 ext. 1107, Monday–Friday between 8:00AM - 3:30PM by Friday, March 7, 2025. A Parent/Guardian must accompany the child in order to complete screening information forms.

In addition, if you are a resident of Adams or Cheshire and you have concerns about your child ages 5-21, please contact the Office of Student Services at 413-743-2939 ext. 1107.

If your child is already enrolled in our 4 year old programming, Kindergarten screening will be held in the schools and you do NOT need to sign up. Further information from the elementary school will follow.
