Dear Jeffers Hill Community:

Each year, the Howard County Public School System partners with the Maryland Partnership for Prevention to bring flu immunizations into our schools for students.  This year, they will also be offering the latest Covid vaccine.  The clinic at Jeffers Hill Elementary School will be held on Wednesday, October 18th, during school hours.  If you would like your child to be vaccinated against the flu and/or Covid at this clinic, please register at this link: https://www.marylandvax.org/appointment/en/reg/0017962492 .  You are not required to provide your child’s insurance information.  It is perfectly fine to receive both vaccines on the same day.  If you have any concerns about the new Covid vaccine, you are advised to speak with your child’s pediatrician. All in-school clinics will be closed to registration one week before the clinic date to allow our health room staff time to review and prepare the consents and make sure enough vaccines are ordered.  If you have any questions, please call your school’s health room at 410 313 7438.
