Immunizations
State law requires that immunizations be kept up-to-date if a child is to remain in
the care of a daycare center. When your child receives an immunization, please fill
out the
Immunization Update
form that you can pick up from the KLA office or the
Family Center Receptionist. Turn the completed form in to one of the Center’s
boxes. This form needs to be signed and the exact date of the immunization must be
given. Copies of the state-prescribed immunization schedule are available in the
Center’s Office.
Parents choosing to not immunize their child for personal or religious reasons are
required to sign the exempt portion of the Certificate of Immunization. A health care
provider's signature is required for medical exemptions. In the event of an outbreak of
a vaccine-preventable disease, for their safety, non-immunized children will not be
allowed to attend KLA for the duration of the outbreak. The Center’s health care
advisor will decide when non-immunized children may return to the Center.
