Subject:Interagency Agreement #28-697-11 with Antioch Unified School District
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
Approval of Interagency Agreement #28-697-11 will allow Agency to offer continuous scoliosis-screening services to
its students, through August 31, 2014. Due to services not being used until the beginning of the school-year, the
contract was not renewed in a timely manner.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, the county will not receive funds in order to screen for scoliosis in approximately
1,400 7th and 8th grade students in Antioch Unified School District.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
Scoliosis Screening clinics provide a valuable diagnostic and preventative service to approximately 1,400 students in
Antioch Unified School District middle schools. Approval of this contract would create an opportunity for students,
who might otherwise go untreated, to receive free screening.
