The Guilford County Division of Public Health (GCDPH) welcomes rising seventh and twelfth graders and parents and guardians to visit Greensboro and High Point clinic locations for required immunizations this summer.
North Carolina law requires all incoming seventh graders to receive a Tdap (Tetanus, Diphtheria, Pertussis) vaccine and a MCV (Meningococcal Conjugate Vaccine) by the start of their seventh-grade year.
