School Screenings
Vision Screening: Grades: 5k, 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th
Parents will be notified when your child's school is scheduled for vision screening. Notification will be on school calendars and/or in school newsletters. District nurses and nursing students and/or health aides will conduct vision screenings. Parents will be notified only if there is a vision concern with their student.
Hearing Screening: Grades: 5K, 1st, 2nd, 3rd
Parents will be notified when your child's school is scheduled for hearing screening. Notification will be on school calendars and/or in school newsletters. District nurses and nursing students/health aides will conduct hearing screenings. If there is a concern, students will have their hearing rescreened in 2-4 weeks. If there is still a concern following the rescreen, parents will then be notified.
Occasionally students from other grades may also have a vision or hearing screening if their parent requests a screening or a teacher has a concern.
