Easier and More Secure Student Zoom Sign-In
Beginning Monday, Oct.19, when students click the link for a Zoom meeting, they will be redirected to a login page where they will enter their PGCPS username and password (similar to how they are already logging into other PGCPS tools, such as Clever). Students will no longer need to sign into Clever or the Zoom app before joining a Zoom meeting.
Immunization
- Although PGCPS will offer distance learning for the first semester, students must meet state immunization requirements within 20 calendar days of enrollment (Sept. 21). Immunizations during the pandemic are essential in maintaining overall health, especially during flu season.
- Starting next month, PGCPS will host free immunization clinics at multiple school sites to assist families with meeting immunization requirements. These services are offered in collaboration with the Prince George’s County Health Department and the Maryland Partnership for Prevention.
- Immunizations will be offered by appointment only in order to adhere to social distancing guidelines; masks will be required. Temperatures will be taken upon arrival. Dental services and flu shots will also be offered..
- For more information, visit the PGCPS Immunization webpage.
