Audiometric Testing Program
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:
• Kindergarten, 2nd, 5th, 8th grade students. Students new toStaff 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.
