Back in the Saddle Again
Reminder from the Health Office
Under the guidelines of the Massachusetts Department of Public Health and the Massachusetts Department of Education, it is the policy of the Tyngsborough Public School District that all students are required to submit a current Physical Examination report to have on file in the nurse's office prior to entry into the 7th grade. Examinations must be dated within the previous twelve months to be considered current and must include a certificate of proof of immunization. Per state requirements, proof of the following immunizations must be on file for your child (prior to entry in the 7th grade): 3 doses of Hepatitis B, 4 doses of Polio, 2 doses of MMR, 2 doses of varicella and 1 dose of Tdap (105 CMR 220 000).
If you are unsure if you have submitted a copy of a recent physical exam with proof of the required vaccinations, please contact our nurse, Michelle Riley RN at 978-649-3115 option 4.

TMS Serves Presents: Pennies for Patients Fundraiser
Starting Monday, April 30th, TMS is participating in the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Pennies for Patients program; a service-learning program that gives students the unique experience of working together to help raise awareness and funds in honor of thousands of children and adults fighting against blood cancers! We are asking that everyone (students, faculty, parents, alumni, etc.) at TMS join in this effort of raising awareness and collecting funds to benefit the mission of LLS: to find cures for blood cancers and to improve the quality of life for patient and their families.
WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Every 3 minutes someone is diagnosed with a blood cancer and every 10 minutes someone loses their battle. Thanks to the support of people like you, doctors are getting closer to finding a cure every day! In the 1960’s the 5-year survival rate for children under the age of 20 with ALL (the most common form of leukemia) went from a mere 3% to nearly 95% today! Your support is critical to help us find a cure and I hope you will join us in the fight against blood cancers!
Thank you so much for supporting LLS and participating in the Pennies program! Together we can reach our goal of $2,500! If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out and contact Mrs. Rachel Flaherty - rachel.flaherty@tyngsboroughps.org
