We are pleased to inform you that our school will conduct a vision screening for students on October 8, 2025, at Grand Coteau Elementary for Pre-K, K, 1st, and 3rd grades. Regular vision screenings are essential for identifying potential vision problems that may affect learning and development.
Important Reminder: If your child wears glasses, please ensure they bring them to school on the day of the screening. This will help us get the most accurate results.
If you do not wish to have your child screened, please contact your school registered nurse to complete the Opt-Out Form prior to the scheduled date.
Please contact the school office if you have any questions or concerns.
