Cuero, TX – Cuero Independent School District (ISD) is issuing a notice to parents and guardians of students entering 7th grade in August 2024. This notice is to inform you of the immunizations needed to ensure your student can attend the first day of school.
Texas law requires students attending school to be immunized against certain vaccine-preventable diseases. Students without proof of required immunizations will not be given their schedule for the 2024-2025 school year until this proof (shot record showing receipt of these shots) is received.
The immunization requirements for incoming 7th graders consist of:
- One Tdap booster
- Two doses of varicella (if not already received)
- One dose of quadrivalent meningococcal conjugate (MCV4 or MenACWY) vaccine
- Two doses of hepatitis A
Cuero ISD encourages you to get your child vaccinated early to avoid the end-of-summer vaccination rush. Schedule an appointment now with your child’s physician.
The DeWitt County Health Department also administers immunizations to Medicaid and no insurance patients on Monday from 1pm-5pm, Wednesday from 3pm-5pm, and Friday from 9am-11am for $20.
