Texas Border Business

WESLACO, Texas – IDEA Public Schools in the Rio Grande Valley is excited to partner with Procare to host 10 low-cost immunization clinics to make sure all IDEA Public Schools students in the RGV are ready to head back to school this August. The clinics are part of IDEA’s Health and Wellness team’s mission to ensure all children are safe and healthy at school.  

The nine immunization clinics will start on Thursday, July 30, and run through Friday, August 14. All clinics will be held at various IDEA RGV campuses and are open to all IDEA students needing immunizations before the first day of school. Families are encouraged to bring their child’s vaccine card to get updated. All vaccines required in the state of Texas for students to attend class will be available. Most private insurance, including Medicaid, will be accepted at the clinics. For those without insurance, the vaccines will cost seven dollars each. Cash, cards and CashApp will be accepted for payment. 

“We’re committed to making it as easy as possible for families to ensure children are healthy and ready to learn on the first day of school,” said Eva Rodriguez, Senior Vice President of Student Health & Wellness at IDEA Public Schools. “We are grateful to Procare for their partnership to make sure every child is up to date on their vaccines.”
