The El Paso Independent School District and Immunize El Paso have expanded a COVID-19 vaccination clinic partnership project to now offer COVID-19 vaccines to all students ages 12 years and older at the EPISD s high school campuses.
The EPISD announced last Thursday it was partnering with Immunize El Paso for its Vaccinate Before you Graduate campaign aimed at getting as many students immunized as possible against COVID-19 before the end of May.
Immunize El Paso is offering free vaccinations to eligible students and their families, as well as faculty and staff.
Students under the age of 18 must have parental consent to receive a vaccine. An official form of identification and a health insurance card, if they have one, should be brought with people who are seeking a vaccine.

The EPISD board of trustees will limit the number of students on campuses during scheduled STAAR testing days as a precaution against spreading COVID-19.
Trustees unanimously approved submitting a waiver request to the Texas Education Agency to be permitted to offer hybrid learning for students in grades 3-8 in May.
The TEA waiver allows districts to require students in grades K-8 who are not scheduled to take the STAAR test, to learn remotely on testing days. This allows districts to reduce the number of people on school campuses and increase the number of remote students that come to campuses to take the test.
