🥼💉 Vaccine Requirement Changes
As of May 20th 2024, Wisconsin Department of Health Services has updated the vaccine requirements for the 2024-2025 school year. For this upcoming school year, incoming 7th graders will now be required to have 1 MenACWY-containing (meningococcal) vaccine and incoming 12th graders will be required to have 1 MenACWY-containing booster (2nd dose in series). Please do your best to have your child up-to-date on ALL vaccines prior to the upcoming school year so they are healthy and ready to learn come September!

🏫 School Information
Change to the Cell Phone Policy at OMS
As many of you are already aware, we had a change to our cell phone policy at Ozaukee Middle School. Cell phones should be off and in lockers. Students will not be allowed to use their phones without staff approval during the school day. If you need to get in contact with your child, please call the office (262.692.2463). Mrs. Henke will gather them immediately if it is an emergency, otherwise between class periods for non-emergencies.
Students will have their phone taken away by staff if found using it during the day. The phone will always be returned, first offense after the class period, second offense at the end of the day, third offense after I speak with you and your child (still same day).
Repeated offenses will also result in Honor Level Infractions as well as additional consequences. Please share this communication with your child, we will also communicate expectation with them on the first day of school.
