Peoria County Preschool Screening provides free developmental screening for all pre-school children (ages birth through five years of age and not enrolled in kindergarten) living in Peoria County outside District 150. The screening checks areas of development that include: vision and hearing, speech and language, behavior and social development, small and large muscle coordination, thinking and reasoning skills, and other readiness skills. The purpose of this screening is to aid parents in answering questions regarding their child's progress and also to identify those children who may qualify for a free preschool education in the public schools.
