LAST WEEK IN YOUR SCHOOL BOARD

On July 19th attended the Broadview Heights City Council Meeting to personally thank the Broadview Heights City Council and Mayor Alai for their continued support of the North Royalton School District. I also had the opportunity to tell the Broadview Heights City Council about some of the great things that are going on in our district as well ways the district’s new 5-year strategic plan is working to close the Broadview Heights/North Royalton gap in the district. Our district is very lucky to have such a great relationship with the elected officials of both cities in our district!

Important Immunization Changes for The 2010-2011 School Year
Ohio law requires that children who attend a public or non-public school be immunized against certain vaccine-preventable illnesses to help prevent the spread of communicable diseases amongst the children and the public. Beginning this upcoming 2010-2011 school year, the Ohio Department of Health at the recommendation of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has issued TWO additional immunization requirements: ALL INCOMING KINDERGARTEN STUDENTS ARE NOW REQUIRED TO HAVE TWO DOSES OF THE CHICKENPOX VACCINE. ALL INCOMING 7TH GRADE STUDENTS ARE NOW REQUIRED TO HAVE A TDaP (Tetanus/Diphtheria/Pertussis) BOOSTER. These immunizations must be received prior to the start of 2010-2011 school year. Please contact your physician to schedule an appointment or vaccines are available through the Cuyahoga County Board of Health (CCBH). To schedule an appointment through the CCBH, please call (216) 201-2001. Once your child has received the vaccine, please forward a copy of your child’s immunization record to the school. According to the Ohio Department of Health (2010), “As with other school immunization requirements, students who do not provide documentation of this immunization are subject to exclusion from school”. If you should have any questions, please call Michele Prezenkowski RN, District Health Coordinator, at 440-582-9067.
