All students new to Framingham Public Schools MUST provide a signed physical examination performed by a health care provider, conducted within 12 months of entry into the school. Massachusetts law also requires that schools receive reports of physical examinations in Kindergarten, Grades 1, 4, 7, and 10. Your healthcare provider’s physical examination form is acceptable.
To attend Framingham Public Schools, all students in grades Pre-K-12 must be fully immunized. Official documentation of required immunizations must be provided to your school nurse before your child can begin school at any age. Your school nurse can provide you with a list of required immunizations, or you can access it from the link below. Only medical and religious exemptions from immunization requirements are acceptable. If there are medical reasons why your child has not been immunized, a statement from your healthcare provider must be provided to your school nurse. Please state a religious exemption in writing to your school nurse.
Massachusetts School Immunization Requirements 2025-2026
During the 2020–21 school year, we saw the addition of new immunization requirements for the Meningococcal vaccine for school entry. The flyer, "New Meningococcal Conjugate Vaccine (MenACWY) Requirement for School Entry," answers frequently asked questions about the new requirement.
Hello, I am the school nurse at Walsh. We are very excited to welcome your child to our school. I need three things, please.
First, I need a copy of their immunization record.
Second, I need a copy of their physical exam. If you don't have one, let me know, and I can help you get one.
Third, could you please fill out these online health forms? Click on the link to complete them.
