| Back to School Immunizations |
|
A reminder that the deadline for having all immunizations up to date is quickly approaching. All students should have their required vaccinations completed and on file with the nurse's office by Sept. 1.
The nurses have been making regular contact with those families who have students that are still showing they need vaccines on file.
If students arrive to school on Friday, Sept. 2 and they still have outstanding required vaccines, they will be asked to come to the office and parents will be contacted to come pick them up. However, the Hancock County Health Department will be offering a vaccine clinic that same day that will be set up at the administration center.

“When in doubt, go to the library.”
- Ron Weasley in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling
Giving teens access to all varieties of literature and helping students develop a love and passion for reading is extremely important for their success. Not only is reading literature important in developing cognitive skills to be able to succeed in a school or work setting, but it is valuable for other reasons as well. Please enjoy this article written by The National Children’s Book and Literacy Alliance that answers the question: Why Do Kids Need Books?
