Required shots include the series for Hepatitis B, DPT, and Polio; an MMR shot, plus additional mumps and measles shots or a second MMR, or healthcare provider documentation of illness; and 2 doses of the varicella (Chicken Pox) vaccine or documentation of illness. A valid Form #3231 must be marked in the box with either Complete for School Attendance or Date of Expiration. By state law, a valid immunization form or immunization exemption (for medical or religious reasons) is required for enrollment. You may request an exemption from your local school.

Proof of custody/guardianship. A Letter of Guardianship is required for registration if the enrolling adult is not the birth parent. To learn more, contact Gwinnett County Probate Court at 770-822-8265.
