VISION AND HEARING TESTING
VASA has contracted with the Fresno County Office of Education to screen our students for both Vision and Hearing Testing. The nurse was at our school site on Tuesday, December 1, 2009. The following grades are required to be screened: Kindergarten, 2nd and 5th. All Kinder and 1st Grade boys will also have a Vision Color Screening done, if they have not previously been screened. Due to the amount of students this year not all screening was completed. The nurse will return on Tuesday January 19, 2009. A follow up report will be sent to parents once all screening has been completed.
