As we move back to in person instruction this week, I wanted to inform everyone of an important update to our current COVID-19 vaccine requirement issued prior to the start of school in August 2021.
As an extension of our existing policy, The Storm King School is now requiring that all community members get a booster shot when they become eligible to receive one. In light of the growing cases of the Omicron variant, even among those vaccinated, we feel that this added measure will help to keep our community as protected as possible.
The School will be facilitating vaccine booster shots on campus for our students free of charge, and scheduling appointments as soon as individuals become eligible.
For students aged 12+, the attached COVID-19 Vaccine Consent Form must be signed and returned by a parent or guardian. If a student is 18+, he/she may sign the consent form for himself/herself, but we are still requiring that a parent or guardian inform us in writing (e-mail is acceptable) that they endorse their student’s consent.
