What this document actually says

This policy outlines Reed Union School District's immunization requirements for student enrollment. All students entering district schools for the first time, starting preschool/child care programs, or advancing to 7th grade must provide proof of required vaccinations from a licensed healthcare provider. The policy follows California state law and eliminates personal belief exemptions that were previously allowed. Students without proper immunization records may be excluded from school unless they qualify for limited legal exemptions. The district cooperates with public health agencies to prevent the spread of infectious diseases. Parents can consent to having vaccines administered at school by authorized healthcare providers. The policy was originally adopted in 2016 and revised in 2022, with the current review dated October 2025.

What this means for your family

Your child must have all required vaccinations to attend Reed Union schools, preschool, or advance to 7th grade. You'll need to provide an immunization record from your doctor when enrolling. Personal belief exemptions are no longer allowed under California law. If you consent, vaccines can be given at school. Students without proper records may be excluded from attending school.
