MCV Vaccine – July 22nd, 2024

Hello.  This is Paula Husar, principal of Palmerton Area Senior High School.  If you are receiving this message, it means that according to our records, your child is in need of the MCV vaccine.  We will need either the proof of the vaccine(s) or a completed waiver form.  If we do not have something on file, your child cannot start school.  This is a state mandate as well as a School Board policy.  School Board policy # 203.1 is posted on the school district website.  

As a measure of good faith, we will accept proof of an upcoming appointment for the vaccine.  We are not required to do this.  It is simply a good faith effort on our part.  Our summer nurse, Michelle Bisbing, is available for questions at 610 826-4914 ext. 5003.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
