  • From the Health Office: Annual school screenings will start the week of 10/25/21. For 5th graders, a note was sent home to wear a sports bra or bathing suit top or undershirts for Postural screenings on 10/27/21. This is helpful for a more accurate assessment of the spine. Please remember these are not diagnostic assessments, they are a screening that helps identify potential need for further evaluation. Please call Nurse Sue with any further questions/concerns at 863-7441.
