• Vaccinations Reminder for the 2025-2026 School Year
     
    Dear Azalea Gardens Middle School Parents and Guardians,
     
    This is Dr. Hinton with an important reminder regarding immunization requirements for students entering 7th grade for the 2025-2026 school year.
     
    All rising 7th grade students must have up-to-date Tdap, meningococcal, and HPV vaccinations prior to the start of the school year.  If your child has already received these immunizations, please provide a copy of the vaccination record to the school between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m., Monday through Thursday, or email it to AskAzalea@nps.k12.va.us.  This will ensure our records are current and that your child is ready to begin school on August 18.
     
    If your child still needs any of these vaccines, the Norfolk Department of Public Health will host a free vaccination clinic at Azalea Gardens Middle School on Tuesday, April 8, from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.  Vaccinations will be administered during school hours at no cost to families.  To participate, a signed consent form is required and must be returned to the school no later than Tuesday, April 8.  The form can be downloaded at vdh.virginia.gov.  If you would prefer a paper copy, please contact our school nurse, and we'll be happy to provide one.
     
    If you have any questions or need additional information, feel free to contact the Norfolk Department of Public Health at 757-683-2735.
     
    Thank you for your continued support and partnership!
     
    Warm regards,
     
    Dr. Hinton
    Azalea Gardens Middle School
