IMMUNIZATIONS OF STUDENTS

No child shall be admitted or enrolled in the Auburn School District unless they are in compliance with the immunization requirements of the State of New Hampshire. Failure to comply with this provision may result in exclusion from school for the child.

The Principal will notify parents of this requirement at the earliest possible date, so that the necessary plans can be made with the primary health care provider or other medical resources to accomplish this standard prior to a child being admitted to school.

A child shall be exempted from the above immunization requirements if he/she presents evidence from his/her health care provider that immunization will be detrimental to his/her health. A child shall be excused from immunization for religious reasons, upon the signing of a form by the parent or guardian stating that the child has not been immunized because of religious beliefs.
