School Health Screenings
Our free School Health Screenings provides a complete head-to-toe assessment for elementary school students with parental consent. Registered nurses help identify potential issues and make referrals for follow-up monitoring and care.
Healthy students are better learners
Our free wellness screenings, available to students with parental consent, provide head-to-toe health assessments. We check hearing, vision, vital signs, oral health, spinal health, height, and weight. Registered nurses identify potential issues and make referrals for follow-up care.
After screenings, we work closely with school nurses to support students’ health, coordinate care, and monitor ongoing needs throughout the school year.
If families are unable to afford necessary treatment, they may request a pediatric grant from Oracle Health Foundation.

“My daughter, Emma, enjoys the screening experience. As a single working parent, I appreciate and find comfort in the screening program and know that, in case I missed something, it can be caught. Thank you, Oracle Health Foundation!”
Comfort and necessities for children in need
As part of our School Health Screenings program, we provide care kits—thoughtfully assembled boxes containing essential clothing and personal hygiene items. These kits are designed to support students experiencing vulnerability, and include age- and gender-specific needs such as clothing and feminine hygiene products. These kits are entrusted to school nurses, who distribute items at their discretion to provide support and stability.
