As a result of the pandemic, students have missed several years of preventative screenings. This year, DPS is planning to screen every enrolled student with an Oral Health, Vision and Hearing Screening. Our Universal Health Screening Teams will be offering in-person vision and hearing screenings, but due to constraints related to the lingering impact of Covid-19, our team will be unable to offer in-person oral health screenings during the 2021-22 school year.
In an effort to collect important oral health information, we are launching an at home survey for parents/guardians to complete. The survey is available through Parent Portal for you to take. The survey results will help us identify students in need of immediate dental support and connect families to other oral health resources.

Dear Northeast Early College Families:
DPS cares about the health of your child. To support our efforts to identify health issues that may impact your child’s success and ability to learn, we are resuming our health screening program with in-person vision and hearing screenings at school.
Due to the impacts of the pandemic, we will be unable to provide in-person oral health screenings this year. Since good oral health is so important for concentration, we are asking that you please complete the Oral Health Screening At Home survey on the Parent Portal. A few minutes and a flashlight or good light source is all you need to complete the screening!
Along with the vision and hearing data, the information collected through the online oral health survey will help us connect you and your students to any health resources you may need.
Please complete the survey electronically within three weeks from today. Although the data is most accessible electronically, if there is a need to complete a paper copy, please contact the school’s health or front office, then return the document within 3 weeks of this message.
Click for further instructions on a Smartphone/tablet/laptop/desktop. At this time surveys in Burmese and Arabic languages are only available in a printed format obtainable from your school Nurse or Leadership Office.
Thank you!
Estimadas familias de Northeast Early College,
Las Escuelas Pública de Denver se preocupan por la salud de sus estudiantes. A fin de apoyar los esfuerzos para identificar los problemas de salud que pueden afectar el éxito y la capacidad de su estudiante para aprender, estamos retomando nuestro programa de control de salud con exámenes presenciales de vista y audición en la escuela.
Debido a los impactos de la pandemia, este año no podremos proporcionar exámenes presenciales de salud oral. Como una buena salud oral es tan importante para la concentración, les pedimos que completen la Encuesta de evaluación de la salud oral en casa en el Portal para Padres:. Solo necesitan unos cuantos minutos y una linterna o una buena fuente de luz para completar el examen.
Junto a los datos sobre la vista y la audición, la información recabada a través de la encuesta de salud oral en línea nos ayudará a conectarlos a ustedes y sus estudiantes con cualesquiera recursos de salud que puedan necesitar.
Agradecemos que completen la encuesta electrónica dentro de las próximas tres semanas. Aunque los datos son más accesibles en forma electrónica, si hubiera necesidad de completar la encuesta en papel, comuníquese con la oficina principal o enfermería de la escuela, y luego devuelvan el documento dentro de las 3 semanas siguientes a este mensaje.
Hagan clic para obtener más instrucciones en un teléfono inteligente/tableta/laptop/computadora. En este momento solo podrán obtener las encuestas en birmano y árabe en un formato impreso.
¡Gracias!
