Engaging families as children transition into kindergarten supports kindergarten readiness and later student success. All children are ready to enter kindergarten when they meet the age requirement – 5 years old on or before Aug. 31 of their kindergarten year.
The Ages & Stages Questionnaires®, Third Edition (ASQ-3) and Ages & Stages Questionnaires®: Social-Emotional, Second Edition (ASQ®:SE-2) create the opportunity to better understand students' development and social-emotional well-being. The snapshot data helps schools prepare to support the social, emotional and academic success of each student.
All Kansas elementary schools are required to partner with families of incoming kindergarten students to complete the Kansas Kindergarten Readiness Snapshot (the ASQ-3 and the ASQ:SE-2) by Sept. 20, 2022. All data (including pending Family Access screenings) must be submitted in ASQ Online by Oct. 10, 2022.
Please make sure your school is kindergarten ready for the 2022-2023 school year! The following resources may be helpful:
