Beginning on Tuesday, November 10, free H1N1 flu vaccine is being made available to GCS K3 - 5th grade students through a cooperative effort between Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) and the School District. Five initial after-school clinics are scheduled for younger children and staff at those schools since they are at greater risk. After-school vaccination clinics for middle and high school students and staff will be scheduled after vaccination of younger students is completed.

Information about H1N1 flu and instructions for children to be vaccinated are being sent home to parents of elementary school students. Parents must be present at an after-school clinic and complete a Consent Form for their child to be vaccinated. The clinics are will be held from 3:00pm until 8:00pm.
