      Please see the attached back-to-school reminder emphasizing the importance of immunizations.
      • Vaccinations play a crucial role in protecting children from preventable diseases and contribute to the well-being of the entire school community. 
      • Before children return to the classroom, make sure they are up to date on all required immunizations.  
      • Check with your healthcare provider to confirm that your child's vaccinations are current. If needed, schedule an appointment as soon as possible.
      • Let's work together to ensure a healthy and successful school year for all!
