Enrollment Procedures

 

To enroll your child at Esperanza Elementary School, contact the school office. When you register your child, you will need to bring the following:

• Birth Certificate
• Proof of immunizations
• Proof of residency
• Proof of legal custody, if applicable


Under state law, schools must have written proof of immunization before admitting a child to school. Generally, most types of records supplied by the health care provider are acceptable, as are records supplied by a previous school.




Immunizations required are described in the Health Center section of the Parent/Student handbook. After the immunization record has been reviewed, the school will notify you if your child's immunizations are incomplete. If you receive such a notice, please have the missing vaccinations(s) taken care of as soon as possible so he/she can continue school without interruption.




If your child should not be immunized because of a medical condition, personal belief, or natural immunity (i.e., he/she has already had the vaccine preventable disease), you must file a Request for Exemption with the school.
