Covid 19 vaccination clinic held at Proctor for Utica students and families – WKTV

The clinic was available to all Utica School students and their immediate families

UTICA, NY - The Utica City School District held a Covid 19 vaccination clinic at the Proctor High School cafeteria Monday for all students in the district and their immediate families. The clinic was put on with assistance from the Upstate Family Health Center.

There was no appointment necessary and those wanting them could get either their first or second Covid shot, or the Covid booster if that's what was needed.

Steven Falchi, the K-12 Administrative Director of Curriculum and Instruction, says its very important for the school to do their part to stop the spread of Covid 19.

"Anything that we can do as a school district to support the local community, and give parents the opportunity to provide vaccinations for their children should they choose to have it, is critically important. Especially in terms of doing what we can do to stop the spread and keep schools open which is critically important".

The school district had originally scheduled the clinic for January 10th, but had to reschedule due to bad weather.

Falchi says the district is working on holding more vaccination clinics at Proctor, but no dates have been set up yet.
