Immunization Requirements
Immunization Requirements
The New Jersey Department of Health requires that all children attending school receive required immunizations. Families have 30 days from their child's start date at school to get any necessary immunizations. Failure to ensure your child receives these immunizations within those 30 days will lead to exclusion from school.
