Attention 7th grade parents:
Emails were sent out last week to 7th grade parents whose students are missing updated certificates of immunization, and as of today, we still have over 200 outstanding. As a reminder, the deadline is September 1, and students must have the updated Georgia Certificate of Immunization Form 3231 in order to remain in school . If a student isn't up to date with the immunizations, including the MCV4 and TDAP, you will need to make an appointment with your child's doctor. Please get these in ASAP to prevent any interruption in your student's enrollment. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter if you haven't already submitted the required form.
*If you did not receive an email last week, your student is likely up to date, but please check your spam folder to be sure.
Please note that effective Monday, August 12, carpool pick up will begin using the number system. The black numbers that students currently have will no longer be utilized; however, new ones will be distributed today and tomorrow.
Thank you for your compliance in placing these numbers in a prominent, visible spot and for your patience with our efforts to make carpool as seamless and efficient as possible.
