🚨🚨 Meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MCV4)🚨🚨

Meningococcal disease is a serious bacterial illness that affects the brain and spinal cord.  Meningitis can cause shock, coma, and death within hours of the first symptoms.

If your teen (11th grader, age 16 or older) has not been vaccinated against meningococcal disease, they will be required to do so before the start of the 2026-2027 school year.
