NEW VACCINATION REQUIREMENT FOR 2012.
Whooping cough (pertussis)has been widespread in California during 2010. A new law requiring middle and high school students to be vaccinated against whooping cough and will go into effect for the 2012-2013 school year. All students entering 7th-12th grade will need proof of a Tdap booster shot before they can start school. This applies to all public and private schools and does not affect students enrolled in Summer School. A typical case of pertussis in children and adults starts with a cough and runny nose for 1-2 weeks, followed by weeks of rapid coughing fits, fever if present is usually mild. Parents please have your child receive the booster shot before July 1st so there is NO delay in enrolling students for the Fall term. Thank you for your attention regarding this important information.
