Is your child needing to catch up on immunizations? That's OK! You can view the CDC Catch Up Schedule for immunizations. If you are enrolling your student, and they are not up-to-date on shots, you may provide an appointment confirmation letter to the school nurse for temporary approval. Once your child receives their up-to-date shots, please send the School Nurse the updated shot record. Thank you!
