Flu clinic forms are going home today! They need to be turned in by the 26th this month. The clinic will be Tuesday, October 10th.
Parents:
It is a state law for immunizations to be completed by 30 days after school starts. If you received a letter from the school, please make sure that you either:
• Get proof of an appointment
• Have a letter of exemption from immunizations from your child’s primary care doctor
• Get a copy of your child’s immunizations sent to the school if you’ve already got them done (our fax number is 870-286-3232 if that’s easier for you)
This will mostly effect students ages kindergarten, 11, & 16.
According to the law we are not supposed to allow children to stay in school if they don’t have their vaccinations up to date after October 1st. Please reply promptly so we can be compliant. Absence will be enforced if not compliant.
Thank you for your cooperation!
School will dismiss at 2:00p.m. on Thursday, May 18th.
We hope everyone has a fun and safe summer!
