Fulton Middle and High Schools

This week we sent our seniors off with one last assembly. They narrowly beat the freshman in the spirit call. Then we waved them out and 11th-8th graders took their new spots in the gym.

Our graduating seniors has a lovely baccalaureate service this evening. 🎓

Congratulations Class of 2022! Senior Walk on their last day of school and Graduation on Sunday. Proud of you all.

Good Morning 7th & 9th Grade Students, Parents & Fulton Staff, Just wanted to let you know that on Thursday May 12th, the Mid-Michigan Health Department will be at the school doing vision screening on the 7th & 9th grade students. This is a free service that the Health Department provides. Please call the office with any questions 👀 Vision Screening Vision screening of pre-school children is conducted by Local Health Department staff at least once between the ages of 3 and 5 years, and school-age children are screened in grades 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9, or in conjunction with driver training classes. Many children enter school with vision problems. Children usually do not know that they see differently. Early identification of an eye problem is important. Conditions like amblyopia, or lazy eye, can be prevented if detected and treated during pre-school years. FREE Vision Screenings at Your Local Health Department All county or district health departments have a Vision Screening Program which includes initial screening, retesting, and referral of children. Vision screening of pre-school and school-age children includes tests using screening and testing procedures approved by the Michigan Department of Community Health (MDCH): Clearness of vision Eye muscle balance Nearsightedness Farsightedness These tests are used to screen pre-school and school-age children aid in identifying children who may have vision problems that require additional evaluation and follow-up. A referral is made to an eye care professional after a child has failed one or more of the battery of vision screening tests or has an observable symptom. Follow-up for all referrals is conducted helping to assure that care is received. Completed follow-up is reported to MDCH. At least ten percent of the children screened in Michigan are referred annually to an eye care professional. Of all children screened in Michigan annually, the Michigan Vision Screening Test Battery routinely identifies 10-15% of those screened as needing eye care. Only a licensed optometrist or ophthalmologist can diagnose visual conditions. Screenings are intended for all children in Michigan without cost and are conducted in all schools and at your Local Health Department by appointment.
