Get Back on Track! Immunizations are Required for School Attendance.

Back On Track Vaccine Image [ [link removed] ]

Healthy bodies and minds are the foundation of academic success! Immunizations and regular visits to the doctor help protect students' health and readiness to learn. All students must be up to date on their routine pediatric immunizations or risk being removed from school. Additionally, the coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine is required [ [link removed] ] for all students age 12 and older beginning with the 2022-23 school year. Take steps [ [link removed] ] now to ensure your student is on track with immunizations!

The best place for a family to access immunizations [ [link removed] ] is their primary medical provider as part of a comprehensive well-child visit where the Universal Health Certificate [ [link removed] ] is completed. If a family does not have a medical provider or they have difficulty securing an appointment, they can select one from a list of pediatric clinic locations [ [link removed] ] in every ward. In addition, DC Health has temporarily expanded access to immunization services, which include:?


* *School-Based Health Centers* [ [link removed] ]?? Families with students age 3 and older can visit any School-Based Health Center for a free vaccination-only appointment regardless of where the student is enrolled. Families should call the School-Based Health Center directly to schedule an appointment or pre-register using the?registration link here [ [link removed] ].?Visit the?DC Health website [ [link removed] ]?to learn more.
* *Mobile Vaccination Units* [ [link removed] ]?? DC Health has placed free mobile medical units at schools and additional sites at recreation centers, COVID Centers and other community locations in all eight wards. Dates and locations can be found?here [ [link removed] ]. Families can pre-register for the free mobile vaccination units by using the?registration link [ [link removed] ] (also available in?Spanish - Espa?ol [ [link removed] ]).
* *Vaccination Block Parties* [ [link removed] ]?? Children?s National is hosting free school-based immunization clinics every Saturday in August and September. In addition to free vaccines, there will be food trucks, raffles, giveaways and more! Staff will be available to answer questions about immunizations. Families should pre-register for an immunization appointment using the?registration link [ [link removed] ].
* *COVID Centers* [ [link removed] ]?? The COVID-19 vaccine is available for free to any individual age 6 months and older at the District?s COVID Centers located in all eight wards. More information on accessing the COVID-19 vaccine is available on the District?s?coronavirus website [ [link removed] ].

Together we can ensure students are healthy and ready to learn by protecting them and our community against infectious disease. Secure all necessary immunizations and submit health forms to school before the first day!
