In these difficult economic times, health insurance is often a financial hardship requiring painful choices.  Please be aware that Littlestown Area School District offers parents the opportunity to purchase student accident insurance not only at the beginning of the year but throughout the school year.  The insurance would be in effect until the start of the next school year.  Please click on the below link for the accident insurance pamphlet.  For more information and how to sign up please contact Mrs. Charlene Albin by email (albinc@lasd.k12.pa.us) or phone 717-359-4146 ext. 1273. The state of Pennsylvania also offers children health insurance through the CHIP program.  If you are interested in that insurance, please click on the CHIP link below.

 Immunization Law -  Effective 2011/2012 school year, new PA law requires all students to have 2 doses of varicella (chickenpox) vaccine or history of disease.  Children attending 7th grade need 1 dose of Tdap (if 5 years has elapsed since their last tetanus immunization) and 1 dose of meningococcal conjugate vaccine.  These immunizations are required as a condition of attendance. Students who have not provided this information to the school will become provisional at the start of the 2011/2012 school year.  If the requirements are not met, the school administrator may exclude the student from school attendance.  If your child needs the required immunizations, please contact your health provider or the State Health Department.
