We have received a lot of interest in the Covid vaccine clinic tomorrow. We have a limited supply so if you wish to have your child vaccinated and have not informed the school, please do so. Consent forms need to be returned today 5/20. If you filled out our survey, your child is on the list but we need their consent forms in order to administer their shot. Please let the school know if you are no longer interested in your child receiving the vaccine so that we can offer it to someone else. Thank you all for your patience and assistance in making this happen for our students! If you have any questions, please call NJSHS.
