Dear Staff and Families,
The Deputy Minister of Education forwarded a letter (in English, in French) from Dr. Hinshaw, Chief Medical Office of Health, regarding vaccinations for children aged 5-11 years. There has been no mention of vaccination clinics for children at the school sites and there will not be a vaccination mandate for children to attend school in-person. There is a Vaccines for children telephone town hall on Tuesday, November 30, where parent can join Dr. Deena Hinshaw for a conversation about COVID-19 vaccines for children aged 5 to 11. For more information, click here.
Web links with additional information about Covid immunizations for children are posted on the Westmount Website COVID-19 page and https://www.westmountcharter.com/covid-19-immunizations-for-children/.
Stay well.
Joe Frank
Superintendent
