Immunizations

From the Parent/Student Handbook
Students must show proof of immunization. A student who does not comply with the immunization requirements will not be permitted to continue in school. Students with medical conditions or sincerely held religious beliefs which do not allow immunizations must complete a waiver statement or affidavit. Forms are available in school health offices. 
Unimmunized students may be excluded from school in the event of a disease outbreak.

Additional Note:  One Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, acellular pertussis) is required for entry to 7th grade.

* Students who do not receive immunizations for health reasons must have a statement signed by a healthcare provider stating that, in their opinion, the specified immunization(s) required would be injurious to the health and well-being of the student or any member of the student’s family or household.
* Students who do not receive immunizations due to religious reasons must have notarized affidavit signed by a legally authorized representative of the student, stating that the immunization conflicts with the tenets and practice of a recognized religious denomination of which the student is an adherent or member or that immunization conflicts with the personally and sincerely followed religious beliefs of the student.
