More about School Entry Health Requirements
 
Immunization Requirements for TK/K
Per California Health and Safety Code, Sections 120325-120375, the requirements for pre-enrollment into NeaCLC for Transitional Kindergarten or Kindergarten are listed below and more information is available on the California Department of Public Health website Shots for School.
 
Make sure that your child is on track to complete immunization requirements. Children behind on their required immunizations will not be permitted to enroll without documentation from a physician stating that 1) they are not currently due for any doses (due to being on an alternative immunization schedule), or 2) they have a valid medical exemption. Please see the Child and Adolescent Vaccine Assessment Tool on the CDC website for a list of recommended dates for immunizations based on your child's birth date.
 
If your child receives any additional vaccinations between their date of enrollment into Nea and the first day of the school year, you must bring the updated immunization records into your school office sometime during the two week period prior to the first day of school. Remember, children who have not provided Nea with documentation verifying they have received all required immunizations prior to the first day of school will not be allowed to attend school until all immunization records have been provided.

School Entry Health Exam (Kindergarten)
 
What is involved?
School health exam requirements are specified in the California Health and Safety Code: California Code of Regulations, Title 5, Section 432. Your child's health exam should include:
  • Health and developmental history
  • Unclothed, complete physical examination
  • Oral health assessment
  • Nutrition assessment
  • Vaccinations, appropriate for age
  • Vision screening
  • Hearing screening
  • Screening for anemia, lead, urine abnormalities, tuberculosis, etc.
  • Health education and anticipatory guidance
 
Why is this required?
The School Entry Health Exam is intended to detect problems that may interfere with effective learning. Early identification and treatment are important because an undetected health problem can hamper your child's progress in school.
 
When Does it need to be done?
California Law requires that the Health Examination for School Entry be completed sometime between 18 months before entering first grade and 3 months after entering into first grade. 
 
How do I fulfill This requirement?
Nea collects the Report of Health Examination for School Entry form as part of the kindergarten enrollment process along with required vaccination records. 

School Entry Dental Exam (Kindergarten)
 
Why is this required?
The School Entry Dental Exam is intended to detect problems that may interfere with effective learning. Children need good oral health to eat properly, talk, smile, and feel good about themselves. Children with cavities may have difficulty eating and have problems paying attention and learning at school. Cavities are preventable, but they affect more children than any other chronic disease.
 
When does it need to be done?
California Law requires that the Oral Health Assessment for School Entry be completed by May 31 of the kindergarten year, or within 12 months before your child starts school. (If you cannot fulfill this requirement, please indicate the reason in Section 3 of the form).
 
How do I fulfill this requirement?
Nea collects the Oral Health Assessment/Waiver Request form as part of the kindergarten enrollment process.
 
Who Should do the exam and Complete the form:
This assessment must be done by a dentist or other dental health professional licensed in the State of California.
