1 dose of HPV (human papillomavirus) vaccine
1 dose of meningococcal conjugate (meningitis) vaccine
1 dose of Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis) vaccine
HPV vaccination:
The CDC now recommends a 2 dose vaccination series starting at age 11 or 12. The second dose should be given 6 -12 months after the first dose. Further information can be found at: https://www.cdc.gov/hpv/downloads/HCVG15-PTT-HPV-2Dose.pdf
In accordance with the Rhode Island Department of Health, a Religious Exemption or Medical Exemption form must be filled out and returned to the school nurse if your child will NOT be getting the vaccine this year.
If your child has any medical conditions please click on the appropriate form/s, download and fill them out with your signature, and email them back to me at gaughanj@lincolnps.org.
In an effort to keep families informed going forward I will be sending all parent notification letters via email. Please keep the school informed of any email, or phone number changes as soon as possible.
