Important message for the Parents of 5th Grade
Students
This is a reminder
that Arizona law requires that all incoming 6th grade students have
proof of the following vaccinations by the first day of school for the
2017-2018 School Year:
1. Tdap – 1 dose is
required when 5 years has passed since the last Tetanus shot and the student is
at least 11 years old.
2. Meningococcal – 1
dose is required for all incoming 6th graders, 11 years and older.
If you have any
questions about the vaccination requirements please contact your school health
office.
If your child
receives these immunizations before the end of the current school year, please
bring in the documentation to the health office at your elementary school so
that we may update our records.
If your child
receives these immunizations over the summer, they may be turned in to your
Middle School Front office, emailed or faxed to the numbers below.
