Updates for the 2020-2021 School Year
Vision and Hearing Screenings 2020-2021 (OAR 581-022-2220)
ODE will be waiving vision and hearing screening requirements for school districts during the 2020-2021 school year. However, ODE recommends that school districts still conduct these important screenings when safety protocols can be met. Guidance on these safety protocols for vision and hearing screenings will be provided in the coming weeks.
Medication Administration Trainings in Schools 2020-2021 (OAR 581-022-0037)
Pending State Board of Education approval for a temporary rule change, ODE will be providing requirements and guidance for Medication Administration trainings in the 2020-2021 school year. The upcoming rule and guidance will provide a temporary allowance for virtual, synchronous, and interactive medication administration trainings when in-person safety protocols cannot be met.
