Student COVID-19 Vaccination Opportunity

Great news...Our local Health Dept. is working with WCS to host an on-site COVID-19 vaccination clinic for eligible students!  If parents of students (16 yrs or older) would like to have them receive a COVID-19 vaccination, then they can pre-register using our secure online form.  A separate Health Dept. Consent Form will also be required for vaccination. 

Please review our Student COVID-19 Vaccination Information for additional details. If this interests you, please pre-register your student before the deadline.

Pre-Register AND Complete a Health Dept. Consent Form

Submit one Pre-registration form for each student (age 16 or older). Download the additional Health Dept Registration/consent form or pick one up in the school office.

Pre-Registration Form -  Deadline is Monday, April 19th at 5:00pm

Health Dept Consent Form (pdf) available from Cl. Co. Health Dept website or the school office

To pre-register by phone, or to ask questions, please call (937)382-1641, ext 7486 during school hours.

NOTE: Ohio does not mandate vaccination, nor does WCS. Our local Health Department has generously offered to hold an on-site clinic for the convenience of parents and students.

COVID-19: How to report a student case/diagnosis

Parents are encouraged to notify the school within 24 hours of receiving a positive COVID-19 test result or clinical diagnosis of COVID-19 for their child. Please use one of the following methods to report:

During School Hours: Call your child’s school or the attendance hotline.

  OR

After School Hours and Weekends - Use our COVID-19 Case Reporting Form.

NOTE: If your child is in our Virtual Education program (VEd), they are still WCS students and should report COVID-19 cases as they may still be interacting with students through extracurriculars and other activities.
