Important Vaccine Requirements & Upcoming Clinics
As a reminder, Virginia state law requires the following vaccinations for students before entering certain grade levels:
🔹 7th Grade Entry: Meningococcal and Tdap vaccines are required. Parents/guardians may opt out of the HPV vaccine after reviewing educational materials approved by the Board of Health.
🔹 12th Grade Entry: A Meningococcal (MenACWY) vaccine is required.
📌 Failure to provide proof of vaccination may result in delayed school entry or conditional enrollment.
To assist families in meeting these requirements, we are hosting free vaccine clinics on the following dates:

📍 Peasley Middle School – Thursday, April 24th | 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM
