Hearing and Vision Screening Information 

Each year, St. John School conducts vision and hearing screening exams for students in grades Kindergarten, 2, 4, and 6. The screening exams were paused in 2020 and 2021 due to COVID-19. This year students were screened for both vision and hearing acuity on October 27, 2022. Next week letters will be mailed to families of students whose screenings indicated that the student may have hearing and/or vision concerns. Please note that families will only receive a letter if a potential concern was identified.  

If you have questions, please reach out to our school nurse, Dora Hall, ARNP, at covidresponse@st-johnschool.org
