All Washington State Public Schools are required to meet the student immunization guidelines from the Washington State Department of Health.
Parents are required a medically verified immunization record for their student. Medically verified is defined as:
- A Certificate of Immunization Status (CIS) printed from the Immunization Information System (IIS) or from "MyIR" - databases that medical providers often use, OR;
- A physical copy of the CIS form with a healthcare provider signature, OR;
- A physical copy of the CIS with accompanying medical immunization records from a healthcare provider verified and signed by a Pullman Public Schools nurse.
- Lifetime immunization records may be attached to a hardcopy CIS for medical verification. To be acceptable, the record must come from a medical source or include the signature of a health provider or a unique healthcare provider stamp).
- If you cannot find record of immunizations, please check with our district nurse, Michelle Hyatt, who can search the WA Immunization Information System (IIS).
We encourage families to plan ahead! Please consider reaching out to your student's medical provider to request a copy of immunization records. A copy of the student's medically verified immunization record can be uploaded into the online enrollment application. Families may also mail in or drop off a physical copy of the immunization record at the student's assigned school.
Immunization records are required and students will be ineligible to attend school if appropriate records are not provided.
