Immunizations
By law, the district must have an immunization record for each student on file. See what immunizations are required and recommended.
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.

Immunization exemptions
The State of Texas does allow for exemptions to the immunization requirements based on medical need or reason of conscience; however, both types of exemptions require proper documentation.
