7th/8th Grade Immunization Information
North Dakota requires all 7th & 8th graders to have received the meningococcal and Tdap vaccines prior to 7th grade, or if you're new to the district as an 8th grader. Vaccinations can be given any time after the student's 11th birthday.
Students who are not up to date or don’t have an exemption turned in by October 1 will be excluded from school and this will count as an unexcused absence. Contact your child’s health care provider or Burleigh County Health (355-1540) about the immunizations your child will need.
Updated immunizations or exemption forms can be dropped of at our front office, faxed to 701-323-4605, or emailed to our school nurse Kelsie Neibauer . If you've already submitted the required documents, another copy is not needed.
