Get Your COVID-19 Vaccine!

CPS clinics will be offering the Pfizer vaccine for CPS students 12 and older and their family members. The vaccine is FREE, SAFE, and EFFECTIVE at protecting individuals against COVID-19. As COVID cases start to increase again throughout the city and we are just 6 weeks away from the start of school, vaccinating our communities NOW is more important than ever.
