Tick, Tick, Tick....Time flies from now until August 12, 2010. 

Has your child received the three vaccines that are required for entry to Grade 7?  Do not wait until the last minute.  Your child will not receive their schedule for grade 7 on August 12, 2010 or start School on August 23, 2010 unless the nurse has received documentation that the vaccines have been completed.

We can help!

Not sure if your child is up to date? Check the Parent portal for Varicella #2, TDaP in the last 5 years, and Meningitis.  Or call Miss Grace.

Need a copy of your child&apos;s shot record?  Check the Parent Portal or call Miss Grace for a copy.

Have insurance but need a physician?  Miss Grace can refer you to local Pediatric and Family Practice doctors in the area.

Need Insurance?  We can help you with free or reduced cost insurance through CHIP.

Just need to know a place to go for free or reduced cost vaccines?  We can give you that info too. 

Already have an updated shot record?  Send a copy to school with your child or fax to 469-752-5814.

DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE!</description>
