Immunization
What Happens if your Child is Missing Required Vaccines
Your child’s school will notify you if they are missing any required vaccines. The notice will tell you how many days you have to get your child vaccinated. If your child is not vaccinated before the final day, they will be excluded from attending school.
You should bring the notice to child’s health care provider to have your child vaccinated.
To allow your child to return to school, show your child’s school a vaccine record proving that they have received the required vaccines.
Other Situations
If your child is not yet immunized against all required diseases, there are a few situations in which they may still be allowed to attend school.
In Process
Some vaccine doses need to be taken at specific time intervals. For example, your child may be given a vaccine and told to wait one month before receiving a second vaccine. Your child will still be allowed to attend school during the waiting period if:
- your child has received the first dose of each school-required vaccine, and
- you are told by a medical provider to wait for the follow-up doses.
