Overview

The Audiometric Testing Program (Audiometry) provides District-wide hearing screenings for both General Education students and Special Education students. Hearing screenings are mandated by the State of California.

State Mandates:

Staff members utilize equipment that meet ANSI specifications.  Staff follow the State testing standards for hearing screenings.  Every year, approximately 240,000 students (Pre-kinder through 12th grade) are tested by the Audiometric Testing Program.

Audiometry testing is used to identify and refer students with hearing loss.  A hearing impairment, if not properly identified and treated, can have detrimental effects on a child's performance in the classroom.
