Scoliosis Screening for 6th and 8th grade students

Scoliosis screening will take place on Thursday, February 27, 2025. Both 6th and 8th grade will be screened that day. Makeup day will be Friday, February 28, 2025. Please make sure your child wears appropriate attire for the screening.

We are aware that many students are screened by their physician during the routine annual exam. Also, several students may not feel comfortable with the process of the screening.

Please feel free to check the 'opt out' portion of the #4400 form if you chose not to have your student/child screened while in school. All forms will need to be completed, emailed, or returned by the student before testing.

If you have any further questions and/or concerns please email Nurse Assistant Davalyn White (Miss Davalyn).
