Sixth Grade Immunizations ("Shots")

The county department of public health is doing their IZ Xtreme program again at middle schools this October. This is available to all 6th graders, and also any 7th and 8th graders who have not received this immunizations.

The immunizations are the standard ones for this age group, and prevent tetanus, pertussis, meningitis, influenza and genital warts virus.

If you believe in preventing fatal or crippling infections in our children and our community, this is a fantastic program that provides over $56o in immunizations to each child free of charge at their school.

IMHO, one of the best uses of taxpayer money I've ever seen!
