MISSOURI KINDERGARTEN ENTRY REQUIREMENTS

According to Missouri law, a child is eligible for admission to kindergarten if the child reaches the age of five before the first day of August 2013 or if the child has attended a (state) accredited kindergarten program in another state.

What if my child hasn't had all of his or her shots?

IMMUNIZATIONS

Missouri state law states that all immunizations must be current and up to date before attending school. Documentation must include the month, day, and year of the immunization. No student will be allowed to attend school if any immunization is past due. If you received a notice that your student needs an immunization, be sure to bring proof of this updated immunization to the school before the first day of class. New students must present immunization records at the time of registration that comply with Missouri state law requirements.

Can I send medications to school with my child?

STUDENT MEDICATIONS

Students needing to take any medications (prescriptions or over-the-counter) at school must have a new medication authorization form on file for the upcoming school year. All medications must be in a properly labeled bottle and kept at the nurse’s office. Students are not allowed to take any medications (including Tylenol, cough drops, or other over-the-counter medications) to school without proper paperwork being on file at the nurse’s office. Students are not allowed to carry any medication with them at school or to and from school. Students may carry an inhaler, Epi-pen, or other medical device authorized by law only if signed authorization and release forms from their physician and parent are on file at the nurse’s office, and only if the student can demonstrate proper usage to the school nurse and comply with additional requirements under law and/or Board policy. For students with serious health care concerns, an Individualized Health Care Plan or other appropriate plan should be on file. Such plans should be updated each school year.
