6th Grade Families:
We're so excited to welcome your family to Twelve Corners in the Fall!! NYS requires all 6th graders to receive the Tdap vaccine once they turn 11-years-old. If your child turns 11 before the first day of school and has received the Tdap, please fax a copy of their immunization records to the TCMS Health Office at 242-7367 or email them to us here. Please note: the minimum age for a dose to fulfill the 6th grade requirement is 10 years old. PLEASE NOTE: New York state only allows a 14-day grace period after the start of the school year to receive this vaccine. For your child to continue participating in school after September 20th, your child needs to receive the Tdap vaccine with documentation submitted to the TCMS Health Office.
If your child has not yet turned 11 years old, they are not "overdue" for the vaccine until their 11th birthday. Please note that your child can receive the Tdap vaccine once they turn 10 years old and are only given a 14-day grace period to participate in school following their 11th birthday. If your child turns 11-years-old after the first day of school and has not received the Tdap, please contact their healthcare provider and let us know of your child's appointment date.
7th Grade Families:
New York State requires that students entering 7th grade receive the meningococcal vaccine. If your child has already received the meningococcal vaccine, please fax a copy of their immunization records to the TCMS Health Office at 242-7367 or email them to us here. If your child hasn't received the meningococcal vaccine yet, please let us know of your child's appointment date. PLEASE NOTE: New York state only allows a 14-day grace period after the start of the school year to receive this vaccine. For your child to continue attending school after September 20th, your child needs to receive the meningococcal vaccine with documentation submitted to the TCMS Health Office.
