2026 - 2027 Immunization Notification
Dear Parent/Guardian:
New York State Law Section 2164 requires certain immunizations (shots) to enter and attend school. Please note at this time there is no requirement from NYS for students to have a vaccination for COVID. Please check with your health care provider as soon as possible to make sure that your child has all the needed immunizations. They are listed below. Without proof of vaccinations or an acceptable ACIP Catch Up Schedule by September 16, 2026 your child may be excluded from attending school.
Please send proof of immunization to the school nurse where your child will be attending.
Proof of immunization must be any 1 of the 3 items listed below:
- An immunization certificate signed by your healthcare provider
- Immunization Registry report (NYSIIS or CIR from NYC) from your healthcare provider or your county health department
- A blood test (titer) lab report that proves your child is immune to the diseases
- For varicella (chickenpox), a note from your healthcare provider (MD, NP, PA) which says your child had the disease is also acceptable.
In addition to immunizations, all students in grades K, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 and anyone playing a sport is required to have a physical exam on file with the school which includes hearing and vision screenings. For the state approved form visit our website or open this link

If you have questions or concerns about immunizations, physicals or health screenings, please contact your principal or the school health staff.
