8th Grade Vision & Hearing Screens
Vision & Hearing Screenings April 26 - 29 in ELA Classes
Dear 8th Grade Teachers & LMS Administration
During the week of April 26-April 29, all 8th graders attending classes at Leonardtown Middle School will participate in the State-mandated vision and hearing screenings during their ELA classes. Nurse Powell and Nurse Robeson thank the ELA teachers for their willingness to accommodate us during this time.
All COVID-19 prevention strategies will be followed, including social distancing, mask-wearing, temperature screening, and hand sanitizing.
This is an excellent opportunity to remind the students to wear their glasses or contacts to school as prescribed each and every day.
The Plan
- Daily Screening in ELA Classes
- Nurses will start the rotation of students to the nurses' office.
- Groups of 4 will be requested at 1 time. All will travel together to minimize the disruption to class lessons.
- Nurses will provide class lists to teachers if it is helpful to have a tracking sheet for student movement.
- Students will return to class with a letter to take home to their parents re. screening results.

Please let us know if you want to change any steps of the plan. We are flexible as long as we can reach as many students as possible next week. We have a special screener on loan, a 1 week only deal.
