Pre-Kindergarten Student Flu Vaccinations
As you are aware, as of September 1, 2008, every child aged 6 months through 59 months of age, and enrolled in preschool, is required to have received one dose of the influenza vaccine, given between September 1 and December 31, of each year in preschool. This is a mandate by New Jersey state administrative code N.J.A.C. 8:57-4 and is not voluntary.
Notices of this regulation were provided to the parent/guardian during the registration process to Pre-K for your child. We may be notifying you again if your child does not yet meet the requirements of this regulation according to the school health records that are on file in the nurse’s office.
If you have not done so, please provide documentation of having received the influenza vaccination between September 1 and December 31, 2020. If we do not receive proof of your child having received the influenza vaccine, your child is not allowed to return to school on January 1, 2021.
