Please send/email any updated vaccine records you may have for next year to the health room. Each 8th grade student will need to be compliant with Tdap and Meningococcal vaccines prior to the start of 8th grade. Please send those records to christie.netterville@lsr7.net or amy.connell@lsr7.net. You may also bring the records to the school and let the front office staff know it is for the health room, if that is preferred.
