From The Desk of the School Nurse:

This is just a friendly reminder that all current 11th grade students will be required to have the following two immunizations prior to the beginning the 12th grade school year.

MCV4 (2nd dose required unless 1st one given after 16th birthday)

Tdap (one dose required)

We are sending this information out to you now, so that yearly medical appointments and follow up can occur before the August 10th deadline for the fall of 2024/25 school year as required by West Virginia. These records can be mailed to the school or dropped off in the drop box at the front entrance at any time over the summer.
