Family Information Night:
May 11th 5:30-6:30pm See flyer for details A Message From the Health Room: Attention all families of students who are entering the 7th grade: Letters for students who are missing their Tdap Vaccination required for school attendance were mailed out from the Health Room at Cascade Middle School on May 2, 2022. The Tdap is a booster vaccine which continues to protect your child against the tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis diseases they may or may not have been immunized against as a young child. In Washington State, a Tdap vaccine is required for students attending school in 7th through 12th grades. All students entering 7th grade in the next school year, 2022-2023 are required to have the Tdap vaccine on file with the Washington State Immunization System (WAIIS) or have documentation of an exemption on file with the school prior to their first day of 7th grade, September 6, 2022. To meet the requirement the Tdap vaccine can be given on or after age 10. Documentation of the Tdap vaccine or an exemption must be turned in before your child can start 7th grade on 9/6/22. If we do not receive documentation by due date above, by law, we must send you a Notice of Exclusion for Immunization Noncompliance. This will explain that your child cannot attend school until you provide the required immunization documentation, RCW 28A.210.120. Valid documentation includes medical records showing vaccination or a completed Certificate of Exemption (COE) form. What do vaccines cost? In Washington, all children under age 19 can get free vaccines from their health care provider. Providers may charge an office visit fee and a fee to give the vaccine, called an administration fee. If you cannot pay the administration fee, you can ask your health care provider to waive the cost. Where do I get more information? Where do I get forms? For more information about immunization requirements, including links to the forms mentioned above, visit https://www.doh.wa.gov/SCCI. You can reach us at 253-931-4995 ext 7 for help or more information. Once again: In Washington state, children are required to get a Tdap vaccine at age 10 years of age or older to enter 7th grade. Sincerely, Jamie Allen, BA, MSN, RN Paula Hollerbach, BSN, RN Michelle Susner, Health Technician Jamie Allen, BA, MSN, RN Auburn School District Cascade Middle School School Nurse Schedule: Available Mon/Tues/Wed Cascade: (253) 931-4995 Nurse Phone: (360) 453-7642 Cascade Clubs 2021-2022 Interested in joining a club or activity?
