Immunizations
-
New York State Public Health Law 2164 requires certain immunizations for school attendance. A copy of your child’s immunizations is required for attendance in school. Immunizations are available from your physician or free of charge from the Niagara County Health Department by appointment (Phone: 439-7430). Please submit proof of your child’s immunizations to the school nurse. Students are not allowed to attend school after a specific time without acceptable proof of required immunizations. Please contact your child’s school nurse for assistance. Due to New York State Requirements, all students in grades 7-12 must receive the Meningococcal Conjugate Vaccine.

Parents: Fight Flu at Home and School / Padres: Combatan la gripe en casa y en la escuela
September 2020: Each year, to comply with New York State Public Health Law (PHL) § 613, licensed and registered day care programs, nursery schools, pre-K, kindergarten, school-age child care programs, and public and non-public schools are required to post information about influenza (flu) and the benefits of flu vaccination at the start of flu season in early fall. This year, flu vaccination is more important than ever because the flu and the virus that causes COVID-19 may both be spreading. Flu vaccination will help reduce the spread of flu and help ease the burden on our health care system.
