Parents---beginning with the 2011-12 school year, all students entering the 7th grade will be required to present a record of having received one dose of Tdap vaccine. Tdap vaccine is a combination vaccine that provides a booster dose of pertussis (whooping cough) along with the tetanus and diphtheria booster (Td). Tdap vaccine is routinly recommended for all children at 11-12 years of age.
There is no grace period allowed for students to comply with this requirement with the exception of military children transferring in from another state. Military children will be allowed up to thirty days from the date of enrollment to obtain any immunizations required for Oklahoma that were not required in the state where the child previously attended school. All other students must receive and present an immunization record before entering seventh grade.
Exemptions to this requirement are allowed under Oklahoma Law for medical, religious, or personal reasons. The procedure to obtain an exemption to the Tdap requirement is the same as the procedure to obtain an exemption for all other vaccines.
For more information, please contact the Oklahoma State Department of Health Immunization Service at (405) 271-4073 or via the Internet.
