Vision and hearing screening is
required by state law for PK, Kindergarten, 1st grade, 3rd
grade, 5th grade, and 7thst grade students. If your child
fails the 1st screening test, a 2nd will be performed
about 2 weeks later. If they fail the 2nd one, you will be notified. Please do not let finances be the reason
you do not follow up on a recommendation for optometrist or audiology
appointment. There are several civic clubs such as the Lions Club which
will help provide these services.
Spinal screening is required for
5th grade and 8th grade students. You will be notified
ahead of time so that appropriate clothing can be worn. Privacy will be
maintained during the screening process, and you are welcome to accompany your
student for the evaluation if you or they prefer.
