Proof of Immunization Records are required for certifying up-to-date immunizations for each student. Click here for an explanation of the student health requirements for school entry including TB skin testing, immunizations, and examinations. Note the new state immunization requirements for students entering Grade 7.
A health checkup (physical examination) is required for all children entering first grade, however, the District encourages parents to obtain the health exam prior to or during the child's kindergarten year. The health exam will qualify if it is done 6 months prior to kindergarten entry or 18 months prior to first grade entry.
To make sure children are ready for school, California law (Education Code Section 49452.8) requires that children must have a dental check-up (oral health examination) by May 31st in their first year of public school (kindergarten or first grade). Assessments that have happened within the 12 months before children enter school also meet this requirement.
Emergency telephone numbers are required, including an out-of-state emergency number.
