Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner and representatives from the Houston Health Department and several education leaders from different Houston-area school districts announced the “Super Saturday Vaccination Day” initiative Wednesday.
The initiative is a collaboration between the City of Houston, the Houston Health Department, Harris County Public Health, and several Houston-area school districts to get families and children ages 12 and above vaccinated before going back to school.
“Fourteen HISD campuses will take part in the mayor’s Super Saturday Vaccination Day initiative this month,” said Houston Independent School District Superintendent Millard House. “Increasing vaccination rates among our communities will help ease the worries of our families as their children return to school. For some of them, it will be the first time inside a school building in 18 months. Rest assured, HISD is planning for a safe return. We are doing everything we can to protect our students and staff, but we need your help. The best way you can do that is by getting vaccinated.”
“Super Saturday Vaccination Days” will start on Saturday, August 7, and will take place every Saturday in August in different school campuses throughout the Houston region.
