Annual Mass Flu Clinic: November 16, 2018
Genoa Central School District, with the help of the Arkansas
Department of Health (ADH), will be holding a Mass Flu Immunization
Clinic to provide flu vaccines to students free of charge. This clinic will
be held on Friday, November 16, 2018. If you want your child to
receive the vaccine, you must fill out and sign the 2 consents
provided. One consent is from the ADH (FRONT AND BACK) and
one is from Genoa School (FILL OUT THE BACK OF THIS LETTER).
The flu mist will not be available. The shot is the only form available at
this time. Also, please fill out the insurance information on the back of
the form. If you do not have insurance or if your insurance does not
pay for vaccines, there will still be no charge to you. Please return
these forms by Friday, November 02, 2018. The deadline will be
enforced this year due to changes in the ADH process of reviewing the
forms. Forms will not be accepted after the deadline. If you have
any questions regarding the flu clinic please call the Elementary office,
the Middle School office, or the High School office.
