On Nov 6, three Fairfax Lions joined with 3 parent volunteers to screen vision & hearing of 3rd & 7th graders at St Timothy’s Catholic School (in Chantilly). We identified several youngsters for referral to a professional. It is always rewarding to help youngsters identify limitations so appropriate remedies can be applied.
Results for students screened on Nov 6: Number tested for hearing, 118; Number tested for Vision, 104; Number Referred: Hearing, 15; Vision, 9
The school nurse sent this note: “A huge thank-you for helping us to accomplish our annual vision and hearing screening today! We could not have done it without your help and expertise. We hope you will be able to help us next year too!”
