IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE SCHOOL NURSE...
Dear Parent/Guardian,
All rising 6th graders in the State of Virginia are required by law to have a TDAP booster BEFORE the first day of 6th grade. This injection may also be called Boostrix or Adacel.
Virginia state law does not give any grace period for getting this injection, so if your child does not have documentation of this shot, he or she may not attend the first day of school on
August 20, 2008. You may have your child immunized at your physicians office or at the Orange County Health Dept. You may call the health department at 540-672-1291 for dates and times for free immunization clinics.
I MUST RECEIVE DOCUMENTATION OF THIS INJECTION BEFORE YOUR CHILD MAY ATTEND SCHOOL. If documentation is not received prior to the first day of school on August 20th, 2008, your child will be sent home until documentation is provided. You may bring documentation to the school or have it faxed to: 540-661-4447 Attn: Rhonda Christman, School Nurse.
This information will be advertized on the radio, and in all local newspapers. Please take the time to get this done as soon as possible and get the documentation to the school. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 540-661-4423. Thank You.
