7th Grade: Immunizations Required

Immunization Laws Reminder --IMPORTANT INFORMATION  FOR INCOMING 7th GRADE STUDENTS

Schools are required to check immunization records for all new student admissions in Kindergarten-12th grade AND all student records are checked before their 7th grade year. 

In order to be compliant with the immunization laws, students must be up to date on their immunizations OR have a MEDICAL EXEMPTION signed by a medical doctor.  The COVID immunization is NOT required.  

In summary, all students starting transitional kindergarten, kindergarten, and 7th grade need to have a MEDICAL EXEMPTION waiver from their doctor, OR be up to date on their immunizations. If you have any questions, please call the Department of Public Health, or visit their website. https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/Pages/Immunization/School/shotsforschool.aspx

Please make sure to turn in your child’s immunization records to the school office as soon as they are updated.  You can email records to Kari Momoa. kmomoa@jcsk8.org
**This paperwork must be turned in for your child to attend the first day of school!  

Your child's doctor, public health, and local pharmacies all offer the needed immunizations. Please call the school if you have any questions.
