Immunizations

Please see the attached school immunizations graphic. Our exclusion date has been set for 9/5 for this school year. Our goal is to have 100% of our students/families in compliance, so that no student has to be excluded from school on 9/8.


All students must have one of three items on file with the school prior to our exclusion date. (1) Up to date vaccination records on file (2) Signed religious exemption letter (3) Proof of an upcoming appointment, if scheduled after the exclusion date.
