VISION AND HEARING SCREENING

8^th GRADE

The State of California mandates vision and hearing screening for students in public school. The screening for your middle school will be conducted on Monday, February 6^th by nurses.  The exam consists of visual inspection of the eye, along with a test for acuity. Hearing testing consists of your child wearing headphones, where tones are presented, and your child will raise his/her hand. 

Parents will be notified by mail if their child’s vision or hearing screen shows a need for further medical evaluation. If you have any questions, call the Health Services Department at 714-986-7170 and speak with a district nurse.

Should you decide that you DO NOT wish to have your child participate in the above screening; a written note by a parent/guardian will be required to be on file. Please give the note to the school’s health clerk.

Thank you,

Health Services
