Varicella (chicken pox) vaccine is required for entry and attendance in preschool and Kindergarten, with grades one through six included in the 2008/09 school year. Susceptible students 13 years of age or older should receive 2 doses of the vaccine, given at least 4 weeks apart. Varicella vaccine is not required if the child has documentation of a history of varicella disease.
Students transferring from Broward County Schools should have proper documentation included with their transcripts sent from records retention. Please confirm compliance of Hepatitis/Varicella for the above grades as well as second measles and tetanus booster (Td at 11-12 yrs. if 5 years have elapsed since last dose; subsequent boosters recommended every 10 years thereafter.)
Students entering from out of state or out of the country MUST have immunization records transferred to Florida forms (DH 680/3040) by a Florida physician within 30 days. This can be done at the Broward County Health Department(954 327-6008) if students are not yet established with a local physician.
