A Reminder From Nurse Jenna

Good Afternoon,

On Tuesday, vaccination notices went home in folders of students who DO NOT have updated vaccinations on file at school. PER INDIANA LAW "no student shall be permitted to attend school for more than 20 days beyond the date of his/her enrollment without presenting documentation of immunizations.” The 20 day vaccination exclusion date is Wednesday, September 11th. If parents have questions or concerns, please contact me at 219-983-3660 or japplegate@duneland.k12.in.us

Thank you,

Jenna Applegate, School Nurse
