Immunizations

If you have received a letter from Halton Region regarding your students incomplete immunization record and possible future school suspension:

Parents/guardians must complete the following steps:
  1. Review your child’s online immunization record at halton.ca/immunize to ensure all vaccines your child has received are included and add any missing vaccines to their online record.

  2. If your child has missed any required vaccines, make an immunization appointment with a health care provider.

  3. Report vaccines online at halton.ca/immunize. Every time a health care provider immunizes a student, parents/guardians must report the vaccines to Public Health. Health care providers do not report the vaccines they give to their patients.

Students must have up to date immunization records for the following ISPA designated diseases:
  • Tetanus, Diphtheria, Pertussis, Polio;
  • Measles, Mumps, Rubella; 
  • Meningococcal Disease; and
  • Varicella (chickenpox) (required for children born in 2010 or later).
