Dear Parent/Guardian,
During the 2009 legislative session, Indiana Code 20-34-4-2 was revised, requiring the Indiana State Department of Health (ISDH) to "adopt rules under IC 4-22-2 to require school age children to receive additional immunizations against the following: Meningitis, Varicella, and Pertussis (whooping cough). The additional immunizations required under the rules shall include an immunization booster if considered appropriate by the state department."
Changes mandated by this revision for ALL middle school & high school students are as follows:
1. ALL 6th - 12th grade students will be required to have 2 doses of varicella vaccine, given on or after the first birthday, and separated by age-appropriate intervals as defined by the CDC, or a history of chickenpox disease.
2. ALL 6th - 12th grade students will be required to have 1 dose of tetanus-dpihtheria-acellular pertussis vaccine (Tdap) given on or after the 10th birthday.
3. ALL 6th - 12th grade students will be required to have 1 dose of meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MCV4).
According to state regulations, if a student does NOT receive the required immunizations, they will not be allowed to attend school. If you have any questions regarding the immunization requirements, please feel free to contact me at 354-6636.
Immunizations may be obtained through the local health departments. To schedule an appointment with them, you may call the Henry County Health Department at 521-7053 or the Madison County Health Department at 641-9524. Please present a copy of your child's immunization record to the Health Department when obtaining vaccinations.
Please send a copy of the updated immunization records to the school nurse's office as soon as the immunizations are obtained. Records must be received prior to the beginning of the 2010-2011 school year.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Cindy Crume, RN Shenandoah School Corporation

The National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, NSLP/SBP, is a federal program which assists our families AND our schools. Your family may qualify for free or reduced benefits for lunch, breakfast and/or textbooks while the school is eligible to receive additional program dollars based on the percentages calculated for qualifying households. We ask that each household complete an application EVEN IF A QUALIFYING HOUSEHOLD NOTIFIES THE SCHOOL THAT IS CHOOSES TO DECLINE BENEFITS.
Each year at the beginning of school, Shenandoah School Corporation must distribute letters to all households of children attending our schools. This letter tells families which school nutrition programs are available and that meals may be free or at a reduced price, or that milk may be available for free. Our corporation makes the letter and application available on our school website in a downloadable form or your may pick up the application and letter of instruction up at your child's school.
Please make sure to fill in only one form (application) per household, even if the children are in different schools. You must mark the textbook section to be eligible for textbook reductions and sign the form in the textbook section. Free or reduced textbook eligibility will substantially reduce your textbook cost. You may still be required to pay some materials fees. Answers to questions are on the Free/Reduced Meal and Textbook Application.
