Vision, hearing and spinal screenings are provided through each school. Vision and spinal screenings are administered by professional Rockwood school nurses and hearing screenings are completed by specialists from Special School District.
The following grades are screened annually
- Vision: 1-3-5-6-8-10
- Hearing: K-1-3-5-7-9-11
- Scoliosis: girls - grades 6 and 8, boys - grade 8
Also, any students new to the district, those with a new IEP or IEP renewal, or any student that appears to be experiencing a problem will be screened in vision and hearing.
Your school nurse will notify you if your child's screening results are of concern. Please feel free to contact your school nurse on the specific dates for your child's screenings, or if you feel at any time your child needs a screening.
