Summary

  • Back-to-school vaccination appointments should be scheduled now so children can meet immunization requirements before classes and child care programs begin.
  • School, child care and other early learning entrants must receive certain required shots before they can start, making advance booking important for families checking whether children are up to date.
  • The guidance frames vaccination as protection against diseases such as measles and whooping cough, which can spread where children gather to learn and play.
