Immunization Requirements and Information

Parents/guardians may obtain a legal exemption for medical reasons or conscientious beliefs. All students new to the Saint Paul Public Schools (SPPS) must bring their immunization records or exemption record to school. Immunizations include Diphtheria, Pertussis and Tetanus (DPT); Polio; Measles, Mumps and Rubella (MMR); Hepatitis B; and Varicella (Chicken Pox). Immunization requirements vary according to grade.)
