District Procedure for Provisional Enrollment Due to
Immunization
Texas laws require a student to be
fully immunized prior to admission to a public school. All immunization
should be completed by the first date of enrollment.
Provisional enrollments are allowed
under the following conditions:
- At least one
immunization in each series has been received and the student
continues to receive the necessary immunization as soon as medically
feasible according to schedule.
- The student is
transferring from another TEXAS school and while records are
requested/received from the previous school the maximum grace period
of 30 days applies. Student enrolling from other states are not
eligible for provisional enrollment.
- A homeless student
may be admitted for 30 days pending initiation of vaccinations or
receipts of vaccination documentation.
- A student who is a
military dependent may be enrolled for 30 days pending transfer of
immunization records.
- Individual health
or religious exception to the immunization requirements should be
referred to the school nurse.
When a student’s provisional
enrollment has expired and may not attend school the campus will:
- Send written
notice home to the parent/guardian
- Conduct due
process supporting the withdrawal
- Withdraw the
student due to not being fully immunized
- Student will be
reenrolled when proper immunization documentation is provided
