COVID-19 Dashboard
Proof of Vaccination
As a reminder in an effort to better understand our current vaccination rate, and to assess how close we are to the 80% threshold we would like to give parents the option to provide proof of vaccination for your child. If your child has received the COVID-19 vaccination and you would like this information added to your child’s health record, please provide proof of vaccine through one of the following options:
Reply to this email with an attached copy of vaccination card (vaccination@tyngsboroughps.org)
Secure Health Office Fax (978) 649-9194
Photocopy your student’s proof of vaccination and send it into the school nurse in a sealed envelope addressed to the Health Office
While the school nurses have access to the Massachusetts State Immunization Registry which is a database that keeps confidential vaccination records in one place. Individuals choose to opt into this database which is typically offered by the primary care physician, or they may decline to have the information shared. As a result, our nurses do not always have the most updated information. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
