Fwd: Question re: Middle School Vaccines

[Guest guest]

What about vaccine waivers? They are not allowed in JHS?

Yes, waivers are accepted anytime. When my daughter was going into middle school they required vaccinations. I went to the Public Health Department in Ft. Lauderdale (off State Road 84 and I95) and got the waiver...it's a religious exemption...no questions asked. It took about a half hour.

What about vaccine waivers? They are not allowed in JHS?

I do not know any specifics about vaccine contents but I do know, from

experience, that at least, in Miami-dade Schools(both Public and Private),

you cannot enter 7th grade until you have gotten the Tetanus Booster. Good

Luck!

Hello! Please- does anyone know if there is a standard age or year for

when the middle schools expect children to receive a vaccine? I've

heard 11 years and I've heard 7th grade- two different years for us.

Also- What can I do? Since we deal with clumbsyness and curiosity- a

Tetanus shot would not be a bad idea- Can we arrange for a mercury-

free vaccine just by calling our doctor (He's actually not involved

with our child's Dx of Aspergers- only the school/ private

psychologist and CARD has dealt with that)?...another doctor?...going

to another state for it?.... Please- any information would be

helpful. Thank you
