MCS Families:
Students entering 7th & 12th grades are required to have the Tdap & meningitis vaccines in order to return on the first day of school, or to participate in summer practices/activities. Students may not attend school without proper verification of these vaccines. Students entering PreK, Kindergarten, 2nd, 7th, and 12th grades are required to show proof of Health and Dental exams. Please send documents to your child’s school as soon as possible.
ALSO, new state law requires that any student who has Emergency Medications ordered must have the medication administration form AND the medication available at school or the student may not attend school. Please ensure these are available and are given to the school nurse on the first day of school.
