Sherwood High School - Free PlaySmart Heart Screening
SHS is partnering with Providence Heart and Vascular Institute to offer a free PlaySmart Heart Screening on Tuesday, November 5, 2019. The screening will measure your child’s height, weight and blood pressure and will include an EKG/ECG (which records the heart’s electrical activity) that will be reviewed by a Providence Cardiologist. The screening is painless and non-invasive. Results will be sent from Providence directly to you by email or U.S. mail.
Your child may be screened during PE class or they may come during a non-core class.
· There are two forms (see below) to be completed in order for your child to receive this free screening. You can download and print them or you can get the forms from the SHS main office or through your child’s PE teacher. Please return the completed forms to the SHS main office or your child’s PE teacher by November 1st. Children age 12-18 are eligible for this Providence program.
· We will be offering another PlaySmart screening on April 7, 2020.
· For more information call Health Services at 503-825-5485.
