Proof of Eligibility (Source https://www1.nyc.gov/site/doh/covid/covid-19-vaccines.page)
“New Yorkers must bring proof of age and New York residency. Some sites may only vaccinate people from a certain borough or ZIP code.
Minors must have identification to verify they are at least 16 years of age, or they must have a parent or legal guardian present to attest on their behalf. A parent or legal guardian must also provide consent for vaccination — either in person or by phone — at the time of the vaccine appointment. People who live outside of New York must bring proof of age and that they work or study in New York. You will not need to provide proof of immigration status or a social security number to get vaccinated.”
Note regarding pain medication
If you regularly take aspirin, acetaminophen (e.g., Tylenol), or ibuprofen (e.g., Motrin, Advil) for other medical conditions, continue to do so as directed by your physician or as needed. Otherwise, do not take these medications before getting vaccinated. Taking over-the-counter medications like these before receiving a vaccine may decrease your immune response to the vaccine, making it less effective. After the vaccination, you can take an over-the-counter medication as needed to address side effects from the vaccine.

NYC DOE High Schools including FMHS remain close as NYC ramps up its vaccination rollout and uses FMHS school building Brandeis High School Campus as a vaccination hub for NYC employees.
For updated information about who is eligible and how to sign up to be vaccinated, please see this document. We will continue to update the vaccine information as it becomes available.
FMHS remains closed, but if you are interested in opting in to on-site learning when we reopen, please review NYC DOE policy for school-based testing and the health requirements that students attending in-person school be consented for weekly COVID 19 testing.
FMHS will support families in navigating learning preferences on a quarterly basis. We are asking all families to discuss whether you would like to change your learning preference for Quarter 2 (November-January) and please fill in the FMHS Family Technology and Engagement Form as soon as possible.
Because we will be asking families to make this choice on a quarterly basis, you can rest assured that there will be other opportunities for you to opt into blended learning if you are not yet ready. Families should know that it is always possible to opt into remote learning. Families should complete the DOE Learning Preference form by November 15th.
We ask that all Blended Learning families please complete the COVID-19 Testing Consent form. We anticipate testing on campus every 4-6 weeks and it is important that we have these forms completed so that we can keep our community safe.
If you haven’t yet completed it, please fill in the Emergency Contact form - This is a digital Blue Card that is required each year for updating family contact and emergency medical information. You can also find the form at https://www.fmhsnyc.org/forms.
