BCMS Parents and Students!! Important Message from the BCMS Nurse!

Please call the Health Department and schedule a time for that day. Those who will most likely need updated immunizations are our current seventh graders or students who have transferred from out-of-state.If you have any questions on your middle school student’s need for immunizations, please call the Brooks County Middle School Nurse at (229) 588-2342 ext. 5503. After January 23rd, due to the need to deliver the Covid-19 vaccinations, immunizations and other essential services at the BCHD will not be available until February 9th and every Tuesday morning thereafter, so please take advantage of THIS Saturday opportunity!
