School Vision & Hearing Screening Program – Tucson Metro Area and Southern AZ
Good vision and hearing are crucial for academic success. Enhancing Education (EE) believes that early identification and intervention for vision deficits and hearing loss are the key to helping these children and preventing long term academic struggles.
Arizona law mandates hearing screening and vision screening for designated students from preschool through high school. Hearing and Vision Screening Supervisors must have a current certificate through the Arizona Department of Health Services as required by state law. EE follows the Hearing and Vision Screening and Referral Criteria of the Arizona Department of Health Services. EE can help schools provide these screenings at a reduced cost by utilizing multiple screening stations and utilizing volunteer parents in the screening program.
Please note that our service area for screening is the Tucson Metro Area and Southern Arizona. We no longer provide services to the Phoenix Metro Area. There are school screening services in the area which can be located by searching for “school vision and hearing screening Phoenix, AZ.”
Our nonprofit also has a Vision Scholarship Program which provides scholarships for vision exams and glasses at selected businesses. Our Vision Scholarship Program is for students with financial need at schools which use our screening services.
