Dear Families,
If you have received notices from public health and/or the school on behalf of public health, then you are aware that today is the deadline for updating your child’s immunization records.
As per Public Health’s direction, tomorrow, March 27, 2024, elementary students who have not provided Public Health with updated vaccination information will be suspended from school.
If you are not sure this affects your family, please call the office for confirmation.
Please see the details from Public Health:
Please ensure that your child’s vaccine records are up to date before March 26th, 2024 at 4:30 p.m. If your child has received any of the missing vaccines listed on the Suspension Order, report them online at regionofwaterloo.ca/vaccines
If your child is missing a vaccine, you can:
- Book an appointment with your primary health care provider and upload your record after vaccination (regionofwaterloo.ca/vaccines).
- If you are unable to get an appointment with your healthcare provider before March 27, 2024, notify Public Health of your appointment through our web form available at regionofwaterloo.ca/vaccines. A temporary exemption will be placed on your child’s record to prevent suspension.
- If you do not have an OHIP card or health care provider, please call Public Health at 519-575-4400.
If Public Health does not receive this information before 4:30 p.m. on March 26th, your child will be suspended from school starting on Wednesday, March 27, 2024.
