The following information is provided by Kamehameha Schools:

Kamehameha Schools and Assets School partner to offer early reading screenings on the Wai'anae Coast

WHAT: Assets School, in collaboration with Kamehameha Schools, will offer a complimentary early reading screening, open to Wai'anae Coast families  with primary aged students (middle kindergarten through 3rd grade). The screening session will take approximately an hour and includes individualized feedback with parents.

Participating in an early reading screening allows parents to discover the strengths and areas of concern for their child. It also allows them to be proactive in seeking assistance and finding resources in the areas that the child may need more support. In a very short amount of time parents will get immediate feedback and specific recommendations.

WHEN: Screenings will take place between 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. on the following dates:

• Wednesday, May 2
• Friday, May 4
• Wednesday, May 9
• Friday, May 11
