Vision and Hearing Screener
Each year, the state of Texas requires students to complete a vision and hearing screening and a spinal screening for age-appropriate individuals.
Some virtual learning students have not been screened this school year. If you would like to schedule an appointment to have your student screened by Nurse Benson, please contact her at kristin.benson@bisdmail.net, or call 817-245-3800.
If you prefer not to bring your student in for screening, the Department of State Health Services encourages parents to take their children to a medical provider for well child exams. During these appointments you can ask for screenings. If your child is screened, we encourage you to send us the results of those screens for our records.
Signs of a possible vision problem include:
Squinting
Tilting the head
Sitting too close to the television
Constant eye rubbing
Abnormal alignment or movement of the eyes
Signs of a possible hearing problem include:
Your child wants volumes louder than other members of the family
Your child often says “What?”

Signs your child may have an abnormal spinal curvature:
Uneven shoulders or hips
Ribs that are prominent or stick out in one area
