Vision and Hearing Screenings for Kindergarten

Each Kindergarten student will have their vision and hearing tested in the first few weeks of school.  You will only be notified if I have identified something that will need followed up on.  I always re-test students when they have difficulty, especially Kindergarten students, prior to making a referral. In other words, no news is good news! 

What does a great day look like?

Give your child an advantage, follow these steps to guarantee they have an awesome day

1. Set an appropriate bedtime each night and stick to it!

2. Feed your child breakfast before school.  Anything is better than nothing.  Remember, they may not have eaten for about 10 hours and the morning is time to re-fuel their bodies.  Food is fuel and the body can't work right without it! 

3. Water. Hydrate. Have your child bring a water bottle everyday.

4. Give all required morning medications at home, ADHD medication, allergy medication, asthma medication, etc.  

5. Dress them for the weather and then some.  Layers make most sense for students.  Avoid open toed shoes, especially flip flops.  

6. Send extra clothes every day for students who tend to have bathroom accidents.
