IMMUNIZATION RECORD

State Law (P.A. 386. sec. 92 or 1978. amended 1992) requires all new school entrants to be immunized against measles, mumps, rubella, polio, DTP, DT, T, Hep B, and Varicella. Upon entering 7th grade or higher students must have the Meningococcal vaccination (PA 386, Section 92 of 1978 as amended). Parents/guardians must provide the school with a record showing that their child has received all of these required immunizations or a waiver must be signed.

School Directors of Upper Swatara Township 26 L.R.A. 581).”

Proof of legal residence will be required by the school district of a parent or guardian enrolling a student for the first time, or anytime the student moves thereafter. Acceptable forms of proof of residency include:
