Students Age 16+ Eligible for COVID-19 Vaccine

With students age 16 & older now eligible to receive the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccination, we encourage eligible students who are able to get the free COVID-19 vaccine to do so as soon as possible. By doing so, you’ll not only protect yourself and others, but you’ll also help ensure we can keep students in school.
