Please make certain your child has had the following vaccinations and doses prior to the start of the 2012-13 school year.

If your child is going into 7th grade:

They will need a Tdap (Tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis) booster. Tdap is the preferred booster because it provides vital protection against pertussis, which is commonly known as "whooping cough."

If your child is going into kindergarten they will need the following vaccinations and doses:

Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis: 5 doses
Polio: 4 doses
Hepatitis B: 3 doses
