INFORMATION ABOUT NEW CA LAW ON IMMUNIZATION
For the 2011-12 school year, a new State law now requires that all incoming 7th-12th graders get a whooping cough booster shot, called Tdap, before entering school. Students who have not received this booster shot prior to the beginning of the school year will not be allowed to start school. We encourage you to contact your child’s doctor now to schedule an immunization appointment. Some children may qualify for free immunizations through the Vaccines for Children Program.
