    SCHOOL SCREENINGS
     
     
    Hearing and vision screenings are done on all kindergarten students, new (to district) students, and all students who receive services through the special education department.  In addition, students in PK, 1st, 3rd and 5th grades are also screened.  Parents and teachers can request  a screening for any student at any time when a concern arises. Vision referral letters are sent home to notify parents if the students have difficulties with any portion of the screening. Students who have difficulty with an initial hearing screening will be tested again in 30 days, and if still having problems, will be referred to an audiologist.  Parents will be notified with a referral letter.  Screenings will be conducted during the first semester of school.
     
    If a referral is made for a follow-up eye exam with a doctor, but there is a financial barrier to obtaining the exam, please contact Nurse Christy at 602-467-5310.  Resources are available to help.
