In an effort to better address the health needs of students, the State of Tennessee requires that throughout the 2008-2009 school year, the Hamblen County school system must screen all students in the K, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 9thgrades. Trained school nurses and health care personnel will complete all screenings with strict adherence to confidentiality of each child and adolescent screened. Please note there will be no charge for these services. The screenings will include:

  • Height

  • Blood Pressure
  • Vision
  • Hearing
IF YOU DO NOT WANT YOUR CHILD TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY OF THE SCREENINGS, PLEASE COMPLETE AND SIGN THE FORM BELOW AND RETURN TO YOUR CHILD’S HOMEROOM TEACHER.If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me at the number listed below.  Thank you.
