ATTENTION ALL CURRENT 6TH GRADE PARENTS:   

2021 / 2022 SEVENTH GRADE VACCINATION REQUIREMENTS:

 

The Ohio Department of Health has revised the School Immunization Requirements effective January 4, 2010. All students are to receive an additional dose of Tdap (Tetanus, Diphtheria and Pertussis) vaccine BEFORE entering the seventh grade. If your child has received a Tdap vaccine within 5 years of entering the seventh grade this will meet the requirement.

Additionally, one dose of meningococcal (serogroup A, C, W, and Y) vaccine is required prior to entry into the 7th grade.

STUDENTS MAY BE EXCLUDED FROM 2021/2022 SCHOOL YEAR IF VERIFICATION OF THE Tdap BOOSTER AND MENINGOCCAL VACCINE IS NOT RECEIVED.  Please drop off a copy of the vaccination report to the office. 

 There are various ways you may obtain this immunization:

*Your private physician

*Warren County Health Department 416 S East State Street, Lebanon, OH 45036, 513-695-1228

*Pharmacy and store walk in clinics
