The  junior stock epi pens that you have in your buildings for grades K-2 will be expiring at the end of the month. Nurses will come to each school to remove the expired epi pens. Our new pens should be coming within a few weeks. In the meantime, if there is an emergency, call 911. We will get the new ones to you as soon as we can. Call your nurse if you have questions.

We are within the window where students who have missing or incomplete immunization records may be at the end of their original 21-day conditional enrollment period.

There are several options principals should use prior to withdrawing a student from school for lack of completed immunization records:

1 - Directly contact the parent to inform them of the concerns and make sure they are clear about what is needed

2 - Help parents connect with resources for receiving immunizations - you can work with your school nurse

3 - Extend the conditional enrollment period while you work with the family. A school administrator, in collaboration with the school nurse, can extend the conditional enrollment period when it will likely lead to compliance. (HB308 Q & A Document)

4 - Provide instructions and/or computer access for parents who wish to complete the online exemption training and receive the exemption form

5 - Review the student's immunization records on file and USIIS for the most updated immunization information

In extreme cases, if it becomes necessary to withdraw the student from school due to lack of response to the above steps, please discuss with your Administrator of Schools prior to withdrawing the student.
