Attention all parents of 7th grade students

 

All students entering the 7th grade in the fall of 2022 are required by Ohio School Law to show proof of the following immunizations BEFORE the start of the school year:

 

    Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis) vaccine

 

      MCV4 (meningococcal) vaccine

 

Please check with your medical provider to see if your student has had these immunizations.   You can have them fax the updated shot record directly to the school at 513.27.3303.

 

If your student has not had these immunizations, please contact your doctor of the Health Department to schedule an appointment.  The Health Department provides vaccines for a nominal charge.  No one will be denied vaccination at the Health Department for inability to pay.

 

These vaccines can be obtained at any time from now until the first day of 7th grade.  As soon as the required immunizations are obtained, please bring a copy of your child’s shot record to school OR have your provider fax the shot record directly to TMS so that your child’s record can be updated.

 

If you have any questions, please contact TMS’ clinic at 513.273.3314.
