MA Mandated Screenings

All health screenings conducted in school are required by Massachusetts Law. Screenings are ongoing throughout the school year. Parents and legal guardians shall be provided with an opportunity to request, in writing, that their child not participate in the program. This request must be written each year and be specific to which screening you do not wish your child to participate.

Elementary Screenings are as follow:

Vision Screening
Vision screening is conducted for all grades K – 4. Parents are notified if the student does not pass for referral to their physician for follow-up.

Hearing Screening
Hearing screening is conducted for all grades K - 3. Parents are notified if the student does not pass for referral to their physician for follow-up.

Growth Development Screening
Growth screening is conducted for students in grades 1 and 4. Heights and weights are measured and calculated into BMI or Body Mass Index.

Getting the Most Out of Rooms (The District Communication Tool) 

APS uses Rooms to keep you connected with school news, updates, and important information. If you ever have questions about using this tool, Apptegy (the company that produces Rooms) offers a helpful support site called Rooms Central with a section made just for parents and guardians. There you will find guidance on setting up notifications, navigating the app, and finding the information you need.
