At Bancroft-Rosalie our school nurse, Mrs. Munderloh, handles the school health screenings.
The State of Nebraska only requires a health screening in certain grades,
but here at BR we do a health screen on each student each year. This
keeps students aware as to what their height, weight and Body Mass Index are each
year. Mrs. Munderloh visits with each
student about their screening during the first couple months of school. The screening
monitors all areas of the students health from teeth to hair condition, skin
condition, vision, etc.
All students are screened
individually at BR. It takes longer than group screening but it gives the student a chance to talk individually with the school nurse and ask any questions they may have.
All of the screening information is provided to the parents at report card
time in October. Any parents that have questions or concerns about the screening results should contact Linda Munderloh. She welcomes communication with parents regarding student health and welfare.
