Be Ready For ‘Back to School’ | Immunization Requirements

childimmunization-png-3

Please make sure your Pre-K students and Kindergarten students are up-to-date on immunizations. There are separate requirements for each grade (just because a pre-k student was up-to-date last year does not mean that the same student is already up-to-date for kindergarten). Depending on your school district’s immunization guidelines, students going into 7th grade must have meningococcal and Tdap immunizations. It will make “back to school” much smoother if the required immunization records are submitted to your school as soon as possible. If you get immunizations in Louisiana, please make sure your student has a Hepatitis A vaccine as it is not required in Louisiana schools. If you have any questions, please contact your school’s Administration Office.
