Minnesota school immunization law 121A.15 and District 742 Board Policy 530: Student Immunization states that, for a student to enroll in childcare, early education programs or school, a parent/guardian must show that they have received school-required immunizations or an exemption.

If your child's immunizations are not up to date, you must:

Provide updated immunization records to your school's health office, OR
Submit an approved exemption form.

Deadline

All records or exemption forms must be submitted by the first day of school or as soon as possible. Kindergarten and returning students must have required documentation to start school in the fall.

Students transferring into District 742 have 30 days from enrollment to provide immunization records in order to attend school.

Exemptions

You may qualify for an exemption to the Immunization requirements if you provide:

A letter from a medical provider explaining why your child cannot be immunized, OR
A notarized statement from the parent/guardian stating it is against your conscientious beliefs (religious or personal), OR
Proof that your child is in foster care or homeless

Transfer Students

Students transferring into St. Cloud Area Schools have 30 days to provide immunization records. On the 31st day, they must be immunized to attend school.
