Important School Updates

  • Immunization Family Letter

    Immunization requirements for the 2025-2026 school year.

    We encourage families to review their children’s immunization history with their healthcare providers, so that they may be up-to-date for the start of the school year.  

    Tdap booster: One dose (required at age 11 or older when entering grades 6 to 12 and in compliance until age 11)

  • Family Income Inquiry Form

    Please complete a Family Income Inquiry Form online at myschoolapps.com which is quicker, easier, and more accurate than filling out a paper form. Online forms are submitted using your child's 9-digit ID number. This form is important so funding for your child's school is properly calculated.
