Do you have a child entering 7th-12th grade? Are they up to date with adolescent vaccines? Iowa recently updated the immunization requirements within the Iowa Administrative Code. These requirements become effective for the 2017-18 school year. Your child WILL NOT be able to attend school next fall without proof of the REQUIRED vaccination(s).
Schedule your child's vaccination appointment with your physician's office or contact Clay County Public Health of Spencer Hospital at 264-3500 extension 6685. Also, nurses will be available during athletic physicals at Avera Medical Group Spencer (AMGS) and at Spencer Community Schools registration to give these important vaccines. Parental consent is required. Click here for a printable immunization consent form.
Consider this convenient opportunity to bring your student up to date with important vaccinations! Vaccine information statements can be read here:
