Dear Parents of Incoming 7th Grade Students,
As a friendly reminder, students entering 7th grade are required to have one dose of the Tdap vaccine (different from the dTap) and one dose of the meningitis vaccine, MCV4 (meningitis B is not included in this requirement). These must be administered prior to seventh grade entry. If you’re unable to get an appointment with your child’s doctor, the clinics inside CVS, Walgreen’s and Kroger will administer the vaccines. You may also call the Union County Health Department @ 937-645-2058.
Per state law, a student without these immunizations will be excluded from school within 14 days of the start of their 7th grade year, unless we have an exemption form on file. Proof must be sent in by Friday, September 2, 2022.
These vaccines must be on record with the school. Please mail/email/fax in a copy of these immunizations for our records. Mail: FMS, Attn. Marla Grimes, 11158 St. Rt. 38, Milford Center, OH 43045. Email: mgrimes@fairbankspanthers.org or Fax: 937-349-2013.
Thank you in advance for getting these records to the school in a timely manner! Enjoy the summer!
