    Hearing and Vision Screening

     

    Hearing and vision screening is done for all seventh grade students, for all new (to district) students, and all students who receive services through the special education department. Parents/ guardians and teachers can request a screening for any student at any time when a concern arises. Referral letters are sent home to notify parents if the student has difficulties with any portion of the vision screening. Students who have difficulty with an initial hearing screening will be tested again in 10-30 school days. If they are still having difficulty hearing all the tones, the student will be referred to the school audiologist. Parent/ guardians will be notified with a referral letter. If you have questions regarding this process or do not wish for your child to be screened, please contact the nurse.
