Information from Public Health
In Ontario, the Immunization of School Pupils Act requires that all students attending school be fully immunized or have a valid exemption on file. Public Health mailed notices to elementary students with incomplete records at the end of November. If you received a notice that your child’s record is incomplete, the deadline to update your child’s record with Public Health is January 26th at 4PM in order to avoid suspension on January 31st.
If your child requires a vaccine, Public Health will have drop in clinics during the weeks of January 15-19 and January 22-26. For locations and times, please visit: www.wdgpublichealth.ca/news/drop-immunization-clinics-students.
