Immunizations
The following chart outlines required immunizations for students in Texas schools. By law, a student's immunizations must be current or in-series or the student must have a notarized Conscientious Objection form on file (see below). A student's immunizations must be up to date regardless of participation in the Virtual Academy or Face to Face instruction. Questions -- please contact me!
