Students in Nebraska schools must be screened for vision, hearing, and dental health. In addition, height and weight measurements must be taken, although parents may opt out with a written request. The purpose of screening is to identify those students needing further evaluation or assistance for their health, not to make a diagnosis. Grades K-4, 7th Grade and new students are required to be screened. Students with a doctor's physical report on file that covers vision, hearing, or dental exams are exempt from screening. Screenings at St. John will take place in October: height/weight Oct.8 and vision/dental Oct.22

Your student has received their picture order or a flier to order school photos. If your student needs a retake photo, please let us know: school@stjohnseward.org Retake day is Monday Nov. 2.

If you need a retake and ordered a picture package, have your student bring the package on retake day to give the photographer. Inter-State Studio will re-order the same package using the retake photo.
