2009-2010 Requirements Letter
April
15, 2009
Dear Parent,
All school children in the State
of New Hampshire
are required to have up to date immunizations for school attendance. For the 2009 – 2010 school year, there have
been two changes in the immunizations that are required:
- Tdap: Required if age 11 or older and it has
been 5 years since the last dose of a tetanus toxoid containing vaccine.
- Varicella:
entering 6th graders shall have received 2 doses of varicella
vaccine
Please provide an updated
immunization record to the health office of Windham Middle School
before the end of the school year so that we can update our records. If your child has not yet had the required immunization,
please make arrangements soon, and have a copy of their immunization record
sent or brought to the health office before the beginning of the next school
year.
Below is the link to view NH
Immunization Requirements for 2009-2010: Final Draft 2009/2010 Immunization Requirements
The NH state law provides that
children not in compliance with this requirement will be "conditionally
enrolled" or excluded from school.
Sincerely,
Kathy
