BMI Screening is mandated by the Department of Public Health for grades 1,4,7,&10. BMI stands for Body Mass Index and it is calculated by taking the child's height and weight. These grades where chosen by DPH as they are growing years. The results of the BMI screening will not be sent home, though results will be available to families upon request, as well as health and wellness resource referrals. If you have any questions or concerns about this please notify me directly at 508-693-0951 ext. 281 or LSchaefer@mvyps.org
