Annual Health Screening

Would you like to help out and meet CMCA & Vanguard students firsthand? Whether you can give an hour or a morning/afternoon:

During the Oct 3rd-14th timeframe our students in K, 1st, 2nd , 3rd , 5th, 7th, 9th and all new students need hearing and vision testing.

There will be a brief training session held prior for those parents new to the screening process. Please email margie.miller@cmca12.com or call at X141 and leave a message. I'd be delighted to have you help out with this state requirement!
