Immunization Requirements for Rising 7th graders
We want your child to remain healthy and help them be protected against illness from vaccine-preventable diseases. This is a reminder that your child’s vaccines are due soon.
Students entering 7th grade are required to have one dose of Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis) vaccine and one dose of meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MCV4). The vaccine must be MCV4 vaccine- NOT the meningitis B vaccine.
An up-to-date immunization record indicating that your student has received all required immunizations is due by the first day of attendance at school for the upcoming school year. If proof of immunization is not provided within 30 calendar days after school entry, your student will not be allowed to attend school until it is provided, as required by law.
Contact your doctor/health care provider or local health department to meet this immunization requirement.
Submit your child’s updated immunization record to your school nurse.
