Children attending public schools in Kansas are required to present evidence of inoculations deemed necessary by the State of Kansas (K.S.A. 72-6262). Please provide certification from your health care provider indicating the month, day, and year your child received the required immunization(s).
As an alternative to the certification of inoculations required by Kansas, you may present:
(1) An annual written statement signed by a licensed physician stating the physical condition of the child to be such that the tests or inoculations would seriously endanger the life or health of the child, or
(2) a written statement signed by one parent or guardian that the child is an adherent of a religious denomination whose religious teachings are opposed to such tests or inoculations.
The district may exclude from school attendance any pupil who has not complied with the requirements of Kansas statute. A pupil shall be subject to exclusion from school attendance until such time as the pupil shall have complied. (K.S.A. 72-6265)
You have the option of providing certification of inoculations, or one of the two alternatives listed above. We are here to assist you. Contact your school nurse for assistance.
