A Message From the Nurse
ATTENTION
A friendly reminder that all students in California need to have their immunizations up to date to attend school.
We'll be checking immunization records at enrollment and again at certain grade levels (TK/K,7th) and students will not be allowed to attend school until immunization requirements are met. You can contact your pediatrician to get your child caught up on their shots if needed.
You can upload proof of immunizations through the Aeries Parent Portal starting on July 27 during registration and data confirmation. We encourage you to schedule any necessary immunization appointments in advance to avoid any delays.
For more information on immunization requirements, you can visit the School Health & Immunization Requirements tab on the Health Services website.
We're here to help your child have a healthy and successful school year!
