All Ohio School Districts have received updated information from the Ohio Deartment of Health concerning a change in the Immunization Standards beginning with the 2010-2011 school year. This update will affect incoming Kindergarten students and students in the 7th grade for the upcoming school year.
Listed below are the NEW requirements for incoming Kindergarten students in the State of Ohio for the 2010-2011 school year:
- 5 Doses of DTaP, DTP, or DT,or any combination, if the fourth dose was administered prior to the 4th birthday. (Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis)
- 4 Doses of any combination of OPV or IPV *, the final dose must be administered on or after the 4th birthday regardless of the number of previous doses. (Polio)
- 2 Doses of MMR. Dose 1 must be administered on or after the 1st birthday. The second dose must be administered at least 28 days after dose 1. (Measles, Mumps, Rubella).
- 3 Doses of Hepatitis B. The second dose must be administered at least 28 days after the first dose. The third dose must be given at least 16 weeks after the first dose and at least 8 weeks after the second dose. The last dose in the series (third or fourth) must not be administered before age 24 weeks.
- 2 Doses of Varicella* vaccine must be administered prior to entry. (Chickenpox)
* denotes change
NEW STANDARD FOR 7TH GRADE STUDENTS FOR 2010-2011 SCHOOL YEAR
- 1 Dose of Tdap or TD vaccine must be administered prior to entry to 7th grade.
The Ohio Department of Health has given the following statment concerning the additional booster for 7th grade students:
The most significant change for schools is that all 7th graders will be required to have the Tdap booster. Currently only 30% of Ohio's 7th graders have received this booster, therefore the requirement will most likely affect the majority of incoming 7th grade students. As with other school immunization requirements, students who do not provide documentation of this immunization are subjet to exclusion from school. (ORC 3313.671).
Ohio Law allows a 14 school day period for compliance with the immunization requirement. Please provide the needed information by August 25, 2010, the first day of school. As of September 14, 2010, students whose records are incomplete will be excluded from school until the needed documentation is provided to the school nurse.
If you have any questions concerning your child's immunizations, please contact Mrs. Cathy McCrea, R. N. at any of the school offices.
