Vision & Hearing Screenings
Dear Parent/Guardian,
California has passed a law requiring all learners in kindergarten, 2nd, 5th, and 8th grade to have a screening for possible vision or auditory deficiency. State-mandated vision screenings and auditory screenings will be conducted at our school from March through June 2023.
Auditory testing may be done upon first-time admission of 10th graders.
When your child is examined, you will be notified if any deficiency is found, and a referral for further evaluation for your child’s physician will be given.
Color Vision Screening:
First grade male children will be screened for color deficiencies once.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact the school front office:

Estimado Padres de Familia/Guardián,
California ha aprobado una ley que requiere que todos los estudiantes de jardín de infantes (kinder), 2.º, 5.º y 8.º grado se sometan a una prueba de detección de una posible deficiencia auditiva o visual. Los exámenes de la vista obligatorios por el estado se realizarán empezando el mes de Marzo-Junio 2023.
Las pruebas auditivas se pueden realizar en la admisión por primera vez de los estudiantes de décimo grado.
Cuando se examine a su hijo, se le notificará si se encuentra alguna deficiencia y se le dará una referencia para una evaluación adicional con el médico de su hijo.
Examen de visión cromática:
Se llevará a cabo una sola vez para niños varones de primer grado para detectar deficiencias de color.
