Please take the coming weeks to check with your child's physician to make sure your student is up-to-date on all their required immunizations. Medically verified immunization records include one or more of the following:



The update to Chapter 246-105 WAC has three major focuses:
  • It now requires medically verified immunization records for school and childcare entry.
  • It clarifies conditional status in regard to school and child care immunization requirements and implementation.
