-- .v- * t : Johnsburg hearing, vision tests scheduled Education, the Illinois jerous Drugs Commission the Illinois Department of tal Health, Division of all kindergarten, first, third, fifth, seventh by Carol A. Stevens During the months of October, November and early December, i, first, second, _ grade students and special education students in the Johnsburg school district will be receiving hearing and vision screening tests. This is a process that is required by the State Board of Education each year. This year, because of the addition of a health clerk to the Johnsburg staff, these screenings will be able to be completed earlier than in the past. This is especially helpful as the cold ana flu season ap­ proaches, since children with a cold often are unable to pass these screenings due to clogged ears and blurred vision. If a student is unable to pass the screening the first time, a re- screening time has been scheduled for each grade level. If the student is unable to pass the second time, the parents will be notified and will be able to take the child to an ear or eye specialist.
