Information for all Parents:
Religious or Medical Immunization Exemption:
For 6th Grade Parents:
Each New Jersey child entering sixth grade must have a meningitis vaccination and a Tdap (diphtheria/pertussis/tetanus) booster shot. If your child does not have proof of these vaccinations, they will not be allowed to attend the sixth grade.
You should check with your child’s doctor as soon as possible to see if your child has already received these vaccinations. Many doctors have routinely given these shots to fifth or sixth graders for years based on advice of federal health authorities and the American Academy of Pediatrics. Parents do have the right to opt out of the new requirements based on religious convictions or medical necessity. In order to get a medical waiver, your child’s doctor must certify in writing that the immunizations would harm your child. To obtain a religious waiver, you must certify in writing that the vaccination will “conflict with the pupil’s exercise of bona fide religious tenets or practices.” Religious waiver information may be obtained by clicking here.
For more information on vaccine-preventable diseases, or the new vaccination requirements for your entering sixth grader, you can visit the website of the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services at http://www.nj.gov/health/cd.
We ask that you provide proof of immunizations or an appointment date to fulfill this requirement by September 2nd. Thank you for your cooperation in maintaining a healthy school.
