    Immunizations

    PGCPS is hosting vaccination clinics in collaboration with Prince George's Health Department to assist families. Per Maryland's Regulations, students have 20 calendar days from their date of enrollment to receive all necessary shots! If not received, students will NOT be permitted to attend school thereafter until they are up to date. Please pass it on! They deserve to be here! 


    Visit our new PGCPS Mental Health webpage at https://www.pgcps.org/mentalhealth  for more information and resources for students, parents and staff!!!

     

    Frontline for Families
    Because the health and safety of every student remains a priority, we must be proactive in screening the health of students prior to entering their respective buildings. As a result, PGCPS has partnered with Frontline Health which offers a mobile app for families to complete a daily COVID-19 self-check or via the link to Frontline Parent Check in for Students. The goal is to help minimize the number of students who present symptoms from entering PGCPS buildings. Please view the video below. We encourage you to use the app each morning before sending your child/children to school. All data will be kept confidential per HIPPA and FERPA regulations.
