Covid vaccines available to Class of 2021!  Please read the important information below from SVSU, this information is being passed on to you as a courtesy, it is not mandatory, but is available to you if you are interested.   Class of 2021,  Without question, events of this past year have been astonishing. In the context of a global pandemic, all aspects of our society have been upended, including profound disruptions to the education sector that forced us to reimagine teaching and learning. Students of all ages have experienced so much loss brought on by the move to remote learning, cancellations of athletic and academic competitions, and so on. For more than a year, students have largely sacrificed traditional school experiences that are engrained in our society, and arguably no cohort of students has sacrificed more than the Class of 2021. But there is good news for these high school seniors!  Saginaw Valley State University will host vaccination clinics on campus in partnership with Meijer Pharmacy where high school students from the Class of 2021 in the Great Lakes Bay Region will be eligible to receive the vaccine. Meijer Pharmacy will be administering the Pfizer vaccine on campus April 19th, 21st, and 23rd, tentatively scheduled for 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. The Pfizer vaccine requires two doses for a completed series, with 21 days between the first and second shot. Accordingly, second doses of the vaccine will be administered May 10th, 12th, and 14th. Two weeks after receiving their second dose, students from the Class of 2021 will have maximum protection in time for commencement exercises in your school district. Good news indeed!  On behalf of the College of Education at SVSU and in recognition of your partnership with us, I am inviting all high school seniors in your school district to participate in the vaccine clinics hosted by SVSU. In order to be vaccinated, minors (i.e. those not 18 years of age by the April clinic dates) will need to be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. Please mark your calendars and alert students of the Class of 2021 about these events. Details of the vaccination clinics are being worked out and you likely have questions about what is planned. To that end, we have scheduled a virtual Q&A session on Wednesday, April 7th, at 3:30 p.m. Note that registration for this meeting is required. For those unable to attend, the meeting will be recorded. Here is the link: You are invited to a Zoom meeting.  When: Apr 7, 2021 03:30 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)  Register in advance for this meeting: https://zoom.us/meeting/register/tJYrceGhqTkqHNEGI7UwBaynIvSQK19QnPNY After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. For immediate questions, please contact Sue Brasseur (brasseur@SVSU.edu, 989-225-5253) or Rob Vallentine (rmvallen@SVSU.edu, 989-948-5648). Through vaccinations and ongoing adherence to public health protocols, together we are going to turn the corner on this dangerous virus and renew hope for a safer (and more normal) school environment for all.
