H1N1 News

By now, all SWSD parents should have received notification that our district will be offering free H1N1 immunizations for ALL students.  Every student in the district was given the document that explains the process on October 7, 2009, and asked to take it home to their parents. The dispensing of the immunizations will take place sometime in the middle of the month of October.  If parents would like to take advantage of this opportunity, they must return the signed consent form to their child’s school and we’ll take it from there! Again, this is a free service and it will be done during the school day for those students who return the consent form.

Also, to further explain the steps we have taken in our district and an overview of how we are handling cases of H1N1 in our schools, here is a letter from Dr. Rupp that was sent home with students this week. Please contact Dr. Dion Betts, Assistant to the Superintendent, if you have any specific questions related to the H1N1 virus and how South Western is moving through this flu season.
