The early entrance process involves an objective evaluation of your child’s cognitive, gross and fine motor, visual-motor integration, communication, and social/emotional development. To increase the likelihood that your child will have a successful first year of school, they will be expected to meet standards approximately six months above their chronological age in all areas assessed.

Learn more about Early Entrance to Kindergarten by reading Procedure 3110.1P.
