Health Services / Health Services: Immunizations

Dear Parents/Guardians of Students entering 7^th grade in August 2021:

This notice is to inform you of the immunizations needed to ensure your student can attend the first day of school in August 2021. Texas law requires students attending school to be immunized against certain vaccine-preventable diseases. Students without proof of required immunizations will not be given their schedule for the 2021-2022 school year until this proof is received. ( The school needs a copy of the shot record after the shots have been received.)

Immunization requirements for 7^th graders consist of:

1.       One Tdap booster

2.       Two doses of varicella if not already received

3.       One dose of quadrivalent meningococcal conjugate (MCV4 or MenACWY) vaccine

4.       Two doses of hepatitis A

Cuero ISD encourages you to get your child vaccinated early to avoid the end-of-summer vaccination rush. Schedule an appointment now with your child’s physician. The Dewitt County Health Department also administers immunizations to Medicaid and no Insurance patients on Monday 1pm-5pm; Wednesday 3pm-5pm; and Friday 9am -11am for $20.00.

Please watch our District Website/ Facebook and The Cuero Record for more details
