Dear Parent/Guardian,
Tomorrow afternoon, Tuesday, May 6th, local eye doctors will be at Newcomer Academy to conduct vision screenings.
Good vision is essential for student success, and this screening ensures that children who need glasses can receive them at no cost. While this is not a full eye exam, the specialized screening process allows eye doctors to prescribe glasses if needed.
A letter will be sent home with your child the day of the clinic. If glasses are indicated, they will also have a consent form. If you would like your child to receive free glasses, please sign and return the form as soon as possible
For students with Medicaid coverage, Medicaid will be billed. If you do not want your child to participate in the screening, please contact the school nurse or call JCPS Health & Wellness at 502-485-3387 to leave a message.
Thank you for supporting your child’s vision and learning success.
Sincerely,
JCPS Health & Wellness
