Oregon Immunization Exclusion Day is Feb. 19

Are your student’s immunizations up to date? Routine immunizations are required by state law for students for diseases such as polio, measles and pertussis. The COVID-19 vaccine is recommended for all students age 5 and older, but is not currently required.
To attend public schools, charter schools, private schools, preschools and childcare facilities in Oregon, students must have a complete and up-to-date record of vaccination, medical or nonmedical exemption, or immunity documentation for every immunization required for the student’s grade: Immunization Requirements
Students who don’t have the required immunizations or up-to-date student records meeting state requirements must be excluded from school starting on Oregon’s Immunization Exclusion Day, which this year is February 19. They will not be able to participate in on-campus learning and activities, including sports, until their immunization records are in compliance with state law. Families will be notified individually before Exclusion Day.
Vaccines are available at many pharmacies, healthcare providers’ offices and Lane County Public Health (541-682-4041). The school-based health centers offer routine immunizations to all students by appointment. Please call to schedule immunizations:
