Required Pertussis Shots Promise Raffle of Giants Tickets

Harker’s nursing staff, under director Debra Nott, ran the big Pertussis booster raffle in late April, rewarding Larissa Wen, grade 7 and Gerry Glasauer, grade 11, and their families, for having gotten their Tdap shots early. Proof of a Tdap shot is required by a new California law and Harker’s nursing staff is doing all they can to encourage students to take care of the obligation now to avoid an August rush. California schools, public and private, cannot not allow students without proof of the Tdap shots to attend classes.
