Health Screenings
Oregon Law says that vision and hearing screenings shall be done to help find children’s health problems. The nurse oversees these screenings. The usual screening schedule is:
Dental: Grades Pre-Kindergarten, Kindergarten, 1, 3, 5, and 7
Hearing: Grades Pre-Kindergarten, Kindergarten, and 1
Vision: Grades Pre-Kindergarten, Kindergarten, 1, 3, 5, and 7
If you do not want your child included in these screenings you must submit a written request to the school each school year.
Screening results for dental, hearing and vision are all sent home to parents.
