During this school year, the following screenings will be
required or completed at school:

Kindergarten, Grades 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 and 10.

all newly entering students.
Hearing

Grades 5 –

A

Status Category Information is required for all newly
entering students and students in Kindergarten, Grades 2, 4,
7 and 10.
A
dental certificate is requested for all newly entering

A letter will be
