To prevent some of the most serious infections, the New Jersey school immunization rules, Immunization of Pupils in Schools (N.J.A.C. 8:57-4) require students to receive a series of immunizations prior to attendance at school.
These immunization rules are maintained by the NJ Department of Health. We suggest you review their website at https://nj.gov/health/cd/imm_requirements for more information.
This website also contains information on religious and medical exemptions.
