Vision and Hearing Screening
Vision and Hearing screenings will be held at your child’s school from November 28-30. All children enrolled in Kindergarten and Grade 1 will be screened for hearing and vision problems. In addition, students who are new to MCPS or who are referred by Beall staff will also participate in the screening program.
If your child does not pass the screening, you will receive a referral letter, via US mail, with the notice of your child’s not passing and specific results of your child’s hearing and/or vision screening, as well as what to do with this information. If you do not receive this referral form, then your child passed the screening.
School based vision screenings may not detect every vision problem. To learn more about possible vision problems and symptoms or health conditions that may require additional evaluation go to Montgomery County Government’s website at this link:
https://www.montgomerycountymd.gov/HHS-Program/PHS/SchoolHealth/HearingVision.html
Contact your school’s nurse if you have questions about your child’s screening.

Join the PTA!
Please join the PTA for the 2023-2024 school year! Your support is critical for the PTA programs and events that we all love. The 2023-2024 membership form is now open - please join today! A note about this year's dues: In an effort to ensure that cost is not a barrier to any Beall family joining the PTA, we have lowered our PTA dues substantially. We are therefore kindly requesting that you consider making a donation to the PTA when you purchase your membership, to support our programming. A donation in the amount of $20 (individual) or $35 (family) would bring your total contribution in line with last year's dues, but any amount is appreciated. We thank you for your support.
