State of Texas

The State of Texas will require students to have up-to-date immunization records or a valid medical or conscientious exemption to start the school year, regardless of whether the student participates in on-campus or virtual instruction. Required vaccines, including the doses required, may vary in Texas from other states/countries.

Protecting the Health of Children

Texas law requires children to either be immunized against certain vaccine-preventable diseases or have a valid exemption to attend school. Vaccines not only protect children's health but also contribute to the safety of the broader community. Waxahachie ISD supports vaccine choice, whether for medical or conscientious reasons, as long as the proper exemption form is submitted. At the elementary level, appropriate documentation is required for participation in meet-the-teacher night, while at secondary schools, it is necessary to receive class schedules.

The Waxahachie Independent School District Health Services Department does share personally identifiable student health information with state and local public health entities on a need-to-know basis for the purposes of immunization compliance and communicable disease control as required by state law.
