Immunizations
By law, the district must have an immunization record for each student on file. See what immunizations are required and recommended.
Required immunizations
Immunization records should be up-to-date at the time of registration. Records must show the month, day and year of each dose of vaccine and must be validated by a physician’s signature or a public health clinic card. Children entering Garland ISD for the first time must present written verification of the required immunizations at the time of enrollment.
