SCOLIOSIS: Students in grade 9 and 11 will be screened for scoliosis by Mrs. Potter and Mrs. McCarthy. If an abnormality is detected you will be contacted regarding your choice of re-evaluation by the school doctor or by your private physician. If you would like to waive this screening for your child, return the Scoliosis Screening letter that will be mailed home prior to the start of school in September, or you may call the health office at 889-8600 ex. 508. 10TH GRADE STUDENTS: Each student in the 10th grade will be screened for visual acuity, hearing, height, weight and blood pressure. If an abnormality is detected, you will be notified and a follow up with your private physician may be recommended. A student who has submitted a routine physical or sport physical exam documenting these values will not be re-screened. |
