Additional Information
Before entering 12th grade, your child will need some additional vaccines. Required, per state law, are two doses of Hepatitis A and two doses of Meningitis (MCV4). Optional vaccines at this time are Meningitis B and HPV. To help provide a convenience to parents, we have partnered with Decatur County Memorial Hospital to complete these required vaccines for your child at school during school hours. We mailed letters home Thursday, March 1 with additional information. If this is something you would like for your child, please fill out the two required forms and have them return to school by Friday, March 9. Right now, we do not have a date/time set, but will most likely be the last week of April. Continue checking your email and newsletter for more information! If you do not wish for your child to receive vaccines, religious and medical exemption forms are in the clinic. Feel free to email Mrs. McCamment with any questions or call her at (812) 591.3330.
