Bernard Zell is pleased to announce that registration for the second of two on-site vaccine clinics is now open to all eligible students, parents, employees and non-student siblings. This second and final clinic will offer COVID-19 pediatric vaccines as well as adult doses and boosters on Friday, December 3, 2021 from 7:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.

Individuals who received their first dose at the November 5 clinic should have already received an email about expedited registration for the second clinic, sent on November 10. Registration for all those who did not attend the November 5 clinic opened earlier this week on Monday, November 15. The process for registering can be found below.

While vaccination is not required, it is highly encouraged for the continued health and safety of our community.

In partnership with UChicago Health, the following vaccines will be available to eligible individuals:

• Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine for ages 5-11 and 12+ (including boosters for 18+)

• Moderna COVID-19 boosters

• Johnson & Johnson boosters

Any student under 12 will need to have a trusted adult on-site at the time of vaccination and for 15 minutes after the vaccination. Trusted adults can be a parent, guardian, grandparent, nanny or family friend. Teachers will not be available to fill this role.

Registration Information 

Registration is a two-step process that will route through the Parent Portal on BZConnect. First, parents/guardians will need to complete a registration form with all pertinent information for each individual getting vaccinated. Second, they will select an appointment time slot(s). Both the registration form and appointment sign-up are required to complete registration.

Insurance information will be collected at the time of registration and is requested (though not required) for COVID-19 vaccines. 

Confirmation emails with details on parking, arrival time, additional forms and specific directions will be sent out the week of the clinic.  

Questions about the clinic can be sent to BZVaccineClinic@bernardzell.org.
