Immunization Requirements

In order to attend school, students must show they are in compliance with Minnesota State Immunization Requirements. A copy of the student's current immunization record must be on file, at school.

Immunization requirements are outlined in

• Are Your Kids Ready for School? (English)
  • Spanish
  • Somali
  • Russian
  • Hmong
  • Vietnamese

Students may receive legal exemption from the immunization law for medical reasons or conscientiously held belief. It is necessary to provide a notarized exemption form to the health office in order to fulfill state requirements. Exemption documentation can be submitted on the immunizations record as noted above. A new exemption form may be required when immunization requirements change.
