Paperwork for the upcoming school year
Students must have a current physical less than one year old. A current copy of the immunisation record should be attached, with any additions.
Incoming Sixth grade
It is a requirement in the State of New Jersey that all incoming sixth graders who are 11 years old receive the DTaP and meningococcal vaccines prior to entry into sixth grade. Sixth graders under 11 must receive the vaccine once they turn 11. Submit a copy of these immunisations along with the yearly physical before the first day of school.
Incoming Kindergarten
Submit a copy of the five-year-old physical and additional required vaccines. This usually includes the second MMR and additional doses of both the IPV and DTaP vaccines since Pre-K enrolment. This must be received before the first day of school.
