Scoliosis Screening

A check for evidence of spinal curvature is required for all students in Grades 6 (during the physical examination) and Grade 7. We appreciate your assistance and support in helping us fulfill this state school health regulation.

Should a problem be detected in any of the screenings or examinations offered by the school health program, a referral will be sent home recommending that the parents seek further evaluation and/or treatment. This referral form is to be completed by the doctor evaluating and treating the child and returned to the nurse's office.

If your child has previously been diagnosed with scoliosis, or is currently being monitored by their physician for this condition, we recommend that their private physician complete this screening for comparison and follow up. If you have any questions please contact the school nurse.
