Minnesota law requires children enrolled in child care, early childhood education, or school to be immunized against certain diseases, unless the child is medically or non-medically exempt.
We request that you please provide a copy of your child’s most current immunization records to the health office for all new incoming students, preschoolers, kindergarteners, and 7th grade students. If any changes are made to your child's record, we please ask that you provide us with an updated copy.
Parents may file a medical exemption, which will require a signature by a health care provider. Additionally, parents may file a non-medical exemption by completing the Immunization Exemption Form signed by the child’s parent/guardian, and must have it notarized if your child will not be recieving specific or all immunizations.
If you plan to file an exemption for your child, this must be received by the Health Office on your child’s enrollment or by the second Friday following the start of the school year.
School aged children are due for required vaccines around the age of 4-5 years old (prior to starting Kindergarten), and again before 7th grade. Please review your child’s immunization records and ensure they have received the state required vaccines as listed in the tables below:
*Incoming 7th graders are due to receive 1 dose of Tdap, 1 dose of Meningococcal (MenACWY, Menactra) before entering 7th grade.
