Documentation

California immunization laws and Irvine Unified School District Policy 5141.31 require that upon school entry all pupils must show written proof of immunizations. A personal immunization record completed by physician or clinic or a previous school record serves as documented proof and must include:

• child's name
• child's birthdate
• type and date of each dose of vaccine (month and year as minimum)
• name of physician or clinic who administered the vaccine

Immunization records are reviewed by school staff to verify compliance. Resources are provided to assist families in obtaining needed immunizations. In rare instances, exemptions can be elected.
