DC Law requires each student attending a DC public school or public charter school to present valid written immunization certification, documenting that they have been successfully immunized in accordance with current Department of Health immunization requirements, to their school before the first day of classes.
Students who do not submit their records within 90 days of the first day of school will be temporarily excluded until their records are submitted.
DC Health has updated its resource that lists locations for pediatric vaccinations throughout the District. To review the full list, please click here.

The meals program has a flat monthly fee of $100 for lunch. In addition, all families are required to pay ($20) for daytime snacks. Families that qualify for free or reduced meals (FARM) will continue to qualify for free meals and snacks.
