Did you know about the free immunization clinics for MJUSD students?

Immunizations are needed at certain ages and are part of the enrollment process for public schools in California. At the start of this school year, we still have hundreds of students who have not had a chance to get their immunizations. Students who are not immunized by Sept. 16 will have to be sent home, and we don’t want that to happen.

While we were looking for ways to make this service available to our families, we learned that many healthcare providers did not have immunization appointments available for months. With a little hard work and creativity, we found a way to form a unique partnership with Yuba County Health & Human Services and Ampla Health. Under this newly designed partnership, Ampla Health Lindhurst will offer free immunization clinics for our students to access. Our Transportation Director also figured out how to provide families transportation to and from the clinic. Thanks to Yuba County and Ampla Health for making this possible!

The clinics will be offered at Ampla Health Lindhurst, which is located at 4941 Olivehurst Ave., in Olivehurst. The clinics will be offered on the following dates:

– Saturday, Aug. 27 from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.

– Saturday, Sept. 3 from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.

– Saturday, Sept. 10 from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.

If a student is not an Ampla Health patient, parents need to fill out a registration packet, which they can pick up from their child’s school site. Bus transportation is available between school sites and the clinics. For more information, please call our Transportation Department at 530-749-6189.

If you have any questions about the state-required immunizations, please contact our Health Services Department at 530-7496141.
