North Dakota requires all 7th & 8th graders to have received the meningococcal and Tdap vaccines prior to 7th grade, or if you're new to the district as an 8th grader.  You can receive the vaccinations any time after your 11^th birthday. 

Students who are not up to date or have an exemption turned in by October 1 will be excluded from school and this will count as an unexcused absence.  Contact your child’s health care provider or Burleigh County Health (355-1540) about the immunizations your child will need. 

You can drop off the updated immunization record in the main office, fax to 701-323-4655, or email it to wachter_secretary@bismarckschools.org.
