Immunizations


Immunization requirements for the all students: 

  1. All immunization records turned in to schools are required by state law to be medically verified.  Your child cannot attend school until you provide a medically verified record of all required immunizations they are due to receive. Here are some examples of medically verified immunization records:
    • A completed Certificate of Immunization Status (CIS) signed by a health care provider.
    • A CIS filled out by you or another parent/guardian with medical records attached.
    • A CIS printed by a health care provider or school from the Washington State Immunization Information System.
    • A CIS printed from MyIR which is a free Department of health online tool that allows families to view and print their official immunization records themselves. Go to wa.myir.net/register to begin the sign-up process.
  2. All students entering 7th through 12th grades must have one booster dose of Tdap vaccine.  Students entering 7th grade must have received their Tdap booster after age 10 years.  Students in 8th through 12th grades must have received their Tdap dose on or after age 7 years.
  3. Personal and philosophical exemptions are no longer allowed for the MMR vaccine per state law effective July 28, 2019.
