I have hashimotos. is it important to have my daughter screened? she is only 5 right now but should she be tested for tpo or wait for symptoms?

Not necessary since: You can't prevent it or do anything about it until it causes problems. However, her pediatrician should be made aware of all aspects of your family medical history.
