Immunization Requirements
Completion of online enrollment requires parents/guardians to provide verification of up-to-date immunization records to the central enrollment registrars. Proof of immunization records can be uploaded directly into the online application located on the "Student Documents" page. Immunization records can also be emailed to enrollment@excelsior.com or you may bring in the records to the Central office Records Department located at 15505 Civic Dr. Victorville CA 92392.
Students will not be enrolled unless their immunization record is submitted and is up to date.
*Students who qualify under the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act and Foster Students have the right to immediate enrollment without delay if they are unable to provide immunization records. Students receiving Special Education Services are exempt from providing immunization records.
Quick Reference
Students must be immunized against certain communicable diseases. Students are prohibited from attending school unless immunization requirements are met for age and grade. The school district shall cooperate with local health officials in measures necessary for the prevention and control of communicable diseases in school age children. The school may use any funds, property, or personnel and may permit any person licensed as a physician or registered nurse to administer an immunizing agent to any student whose parents have consented in writing.
Beginning January 1, 2016, parents of students in any school, will no longer be allowed to submit a personal beliefs exemption to a currently required vaccine. A personal beliefs exemption on file at school prior to January 1, 2016 will continue to be valid until the student enters the next grade span at kindergarten (including transitional kindergarten) or 7th grade.
Students are not required to have immunizations if they attend a home-based private school or an independent study program and do not receive classroom-based instruction. However, parents must continue to provide immunizations records for these students to their schools. The immunization requirements do not prohibit students from accessing special education and related services required by their individualized education programs.
A student not fully immunized may be temporarily excluded from a school or other institution when that child has been exposed to a specified disease and whose documentary proof of immunization status does not show proof of immunization against one of the communicable diseases described above.
