💉 FLU SHOT CLINIC REMINDER

If you signed your child up for the Southern Public Schools flu shot clinic, please take a moment to review the attached flyer.

Some families may receive an appointment reminder from Beatrice Community Hospital showing an appointment at the hospital. This is simply how students are entered into their system.

➡️ If you signed up through the school, your child’s flu shot will be given at school. There is no need to take your child to the hospital.

📅 October 7th
📍 Southern Elementary, then Southern High School

You may go ahead and confirm the appointment if you receive the reminder.

Thank you for helping us clear up the confusion! ❤️
