Reminder for 5th Grade Parents/Guardians - Tdap Vaccine
Virginia Law requires that all students entering sixth grade
receive a booster dose of the Tdap vaccine prior to the beginning of
school. The Tdap vaccine protects against tetanus (lockjaw), diphtheria, and
pertussis (whooping cough) and is usually given around the age of eleven.
In order for your child to begin 6th grade you will need to submit
a medical record showing that the Tdap booster was given prior to the
first day of
school.
The Tdap booster is available from your child’s healthcare
provider or The Fairfax County Health Department.
Please see the link below for more information about The Health
Department clinic locations and hours: http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/hd/hdclinicsite.htm,
or by calling 703-246-2411.
You may submit the documentation to Pattie Ono, Registrar, at pono@fcps.edu or bring it to the school main office.
