Important things to know:
  • Colorado law requires all students attending Colorado schools and licensed child cares to be vaccinated against certain diseases unless a medical or non-medical exemption is filed.  For more information about vaccine requirements, resources and exemptions, please visit the Colorado Depart. of Public Health and Environment’s page CLICK HERE.
  • Current health information should be updated for each student yearly and anytime there are changes. Please download form, fill out and return to your student's school
  • Vision and hearing screenings are performed at specific grade levels each year. Parents will receive referral information if results from a screening warrant further evaluation.
