Vision screening is required by the Indiana State Board of Health for all first graders. All first graders will be screened on Wednesday, September 29, 2021. An optometrist will be present and performing the screening. The results are pass/fail. Your student will bring a copy of their screening home.
If your child wears glasses or contacts, please make sure they have them at school during these days for accurate testing results.
Should you have any questions, please contact our school nurse Danielle Green (dngreen@hse.k12.in.us)

Please remember to include your child’s name, teacher, and the reason for the exemption.
