News & AnnouncementsDearest FCS Families,
New York State recently passed a law that no longer allows students to have a religious exemption for vaccinations. This means that every student must be vaccinated to attend a public, private, or parochial school in NY- except those with medical exemptions. Foundations Christian School has no choice but to comply with the law. The NYS Heath Department monitors a database of all vaccinations given by physicians and audits school health records. Schools can be fined and shut down for non-compliance. Parents and guardians of all children who do not have their required immunizations are encouraged to have them receive the first dose as soon as possible. The deadline for obtaining first dose vaccinations for children attending school in the fall is 14 days from the first day of school. Within 30 days of the first day of school, parents and guardians of such children must show that they have made appointments for all required follow-up doses. If your child is current on vaccines, please bring a bring a copy of their vaccination record to FCS when registering your child or have it sent to the school via email (carrie.lee.alo@gmail.com) or regular mail (561 Maple St Big Flats, NY 14814), Attn Carrie Alo. Even if you think nothing has changed from last year, it will be a great help to have them and we thank you. If you have a religious exemption currently on file with the school, it is no longer valid. Your child will be required to have proof of first dose (or a shot appointment note within 14 days for first dose) on the first day of school. We understand that this causes great conflict for you and we are truly saddened by it. If you have anything you would like to discuss regarding enrollment in the fall, please email us and we can set up a time to talk via phone or in person. If you have a medical exemption currently on file with the school, we ask that you bring an updated letter from your physician in with your registration or on the first day of school. If there are any changes to this situation, we will certainly let you know. Otherwise, we hope you all have a great summer and we look forward to another awesome year of children building their lives at FCS. In Him, FCS Board Members |
