ATTENTION PARENTS OF CURRENT SIXTH AND ELEVENTH GRADE STUDENTS!
The Ohio Department of Health has the following requirements for students in Grades 7 and 12.
All 7th grade students must have received either a Tdap or a Td booster shot. This requirement has been in effect since the 2010-2011 school year.
All students entering 7th grade in the 2025-2026 school year are required to have received either a Tdap or a Td vaccine and a Meningococcal Vaccine
All students entering 12th grade in the 2025-2026 school year are required to have proof of a meningitis booster or an initial meningitis vaccine.
The second (booster) dose must be given on or after the student's 16th birthday
If the first vaccine was given after the 16th birthday, a second dose is NOT required.
The school will need proof in writing that your child has been immunized with these vaccines by the start of the 2025-2026 school year. Failure to do so is cause for exclusion from school after the 14th day of the new school year. This is a requirement from the Ohio Department of Health.
If you have any further questions please contact our school nurse. Records may also be faxed to school at 330-394-3665.
