7TH GRADE IMMUNIZATION REQUIREMENT

All incoming 7th Grade students must show written proof of a TdaP shot within the past 5 years.  This shot prevents Tetanus, Diphtheria and Pertussis (whooping cough).  Brand names include Adacel and Boostrix.  Please check with the school nurse if you have any questions about the shot, need help finding an immunization provider or would like the nurse to check your child’s shot record.  If the school does not have proof of this shot by September 14, your child will be excluded from class until proof is received.
