Parent volunteers are needed to help with health screenings! Washington State law requires schools to conduct auditory and visual screenings for elementary students in grades K, 1, 2, 3, and 5. The Meridian Park nurse will be doing hearing and vision screenings on Friday October 5th and Monday October 8th, from 9:30 AM – 12:30 PM and 1:00 PM – 3:30 PM on each of those days. No experience is necessary and training will be provided. If you are able to help, please contact Nurse Tama at 206-393-4124 or tama.leahy@shorelineschools.org
