IMMUNIZATIONS REQUIRED FOR ATTENDANCE
Subject to the exemptions as provided by law, immunization against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, poliomyelitis, rubeola (measles), mumps, rubella (German measles), hepatitis B, Haemophilus influenzae b (Hib), and varicella is required for a student's attendance at a District school.
IMMUNIZATIONS NOT REQUIRED FOR SCHOOL ATTENDANCE
Human papillomavirus or COVID-19 or any variant of COVID-19 vaccines are not required for school attendance.
A School District or Charter School, as a governmental entity, that requires a person under eighteen (18) years of age to receive a vaccination for COVID-19 or any variant of COVID-19 must obtain the consent of that person's parent or guardian.
PROCEDURES
The Board authorizes the Superintendent to create procedures for verifying immunizations records of students.
A student's immunization record must be submitted prior to attendance, although a student may be conditionally enrolled, provided that necessary immunizations have been initiated and a schedule has been established for the completion of the required immunizations.
The school administrator shall review the school immunization record at least twice each school year until the pupil receives all of the required immunizations.
A student shall not be allowed to attend school without submitting documentary proof of compliance to the school administrator unless the student is exempted from immunization.
On enrollment, the school administrator shall suspend that student if the administrator does not have documentary proof of compliance and the student is not exempted from immunization.
A student who fails to comply with the immunization schedule shall be suspended from school attendance until documentary proof of compliance is provided to the school administrator, except that a homeless student shall not be suspended from attendance until the fifth (5th) calendar day after enrollment.
Any student with serologic confirmation of the presence of specific antibodies against a vaccine-preventable disease shall not be subject to immunization against that disease as a condition for attending school.
The District will cooperate with county and state health departments in programs of immunization. Parents' permission must be secured before a student may participate in such immunization projects.
