Rising 6th Grader? Immunization
Requirement
Will your child be a sixth
grader next year? If so, they most likely will need a booster dose of
Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, acellular pertussis). Sixth grade students cannot begin
school in August without documentation of having had the Tdap booster.
Parents or guardians of current fifth graders, please check your child’s
immunization records and make arrangements with your doctor for the
immunization. Documentation confirming receipt
of the vaccination must be turned into the office.
The following is sent from &
