NOTICE TO 11TH GRADE PARENTS
All seniors (12th grade) are required by the State of Ohio to have proof of the Meningococcal (MCV4) vaccine on file BEFORE the start of the 12th grade.
The meningococcal vaccine must be given after the age of 16 years old. If your child had a dose of MCV4 before the age of 16, they are required to have a 2nd dose. Students will not be permitted to attend class without an updated shot record showing the vaccine administration date. It is the parent's responsibility to bring, send or fax the updated copy of your child's shot record to school.
Please schedule an appointment with your primary care physician, visit your local health department, Kroger or Wal-Mart. Do not procrastinate getting your child's required immunization. Doctor appointments will fill up fast so do not delay and wait until August. Your child will not be permitted to start school and days missed will be counted as unexcused.
As soon as you take your child to get his/her immunication please bring, send or fax to 740-820-2466, ATTENTION: School Nurse. You may email the updated the record to me at
[email protected]. Any questions, please call me at 740-820-3009.
Thank you,
