Immunizations required before school starts

The Citrus County School Board reminds parents of middle school students entering the seventh grade for the 2015-2016 school year that state law requires a tetanus, diphtheria and acellular pertussis (TDAP) immunization before school starts on Aug. 10.

Parents with proof that their child has had the TDAP vaccination should bring it to their child’s school. The school will enter the date on your child’s immunization record.

For questions, call Student Health Specialist Pamela L. Carnevale at 352-527-0090. The Citrus County Health Department offices in Inverness and Lecanto accept walk-ins for immunizations from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. For information or directions, call the CCHD at 352-527-0068.
