"We are excited to provide access to the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine to our students who are 16 and older," said NOLA-PS Superintendent Dr. Henderson Lewis, Jr. "The vaccine will help protect our students, as well as our teachers and staff against the coronavirus. We are grateful to DePaul Community Health Centers for partnering with us to help protect our children."


"DePaul Community Health Centers (DCHC) thanks NOLA Public Schools for this partnership. It mirrors the continued importance our city and state place on significantly increasing the number of people who are vaccinated. We look forward to vaccinating the students and reinforcing COVID-19 virus prevention methods with them," said Dr. Michael Griffin, President and CEO of DCHC.


We welcome you in helping us get the word out about the mobile vaccine program to our school community and to share the best way to access any and all vaccine opportunities for individuals 16 and older.
