Nevada · 2026–2027 School Year

Nevada school health forms:
the complete checklist.

Nevada requires documented immunization records for all children attending public, private, or charter schools under NRS 392.435. Nevada also maintains NV WebIZ — the state immunization information system that schools use to verify compliance. Here is every form, where to get it, and the deadlines.

Required Documents

1. Immunization records — NRS 392.435

Under NRS 392.435, every child entering a Nevada public, private, or charter school must present documentation of immunization or an approved exemption. Nevada follows the CDC-recommended schedule and requires:

Verify with NV WebIZ: Nevada providers report administered vaccines to NV WebIZ, the state immunization information system. Contact your child's pediatrician or the Nevada State Immunization Program at (775) 684-5900 to verify your child's NV WebIZ record. Schools use NV WebIZ for annual compliance reporting under NSIP guidelines. (Source: NRS 392.435; Nevada DPBH — Immunization Program, accessed Aug 31, 2026)

2. Physical exam and health screenings

Nevada does not require a school-entry physical exam at the state level. However, individual school districts — particularly the Clark County School District (Las Vegas) and Washoe County School District (Reno) — may request health information forms or recommend a physical for kindergarten enrollment.

Nevada mandates the following school-based screenings:

Contact your specific school district's health services office for any local forms beyond the state immunization requirement.

Sports physicals: Nevada requires a pre-participation physical exam for students in NIAA-sanctioned athletics. This is separate from school enrollment. (Source: NRS 392.420, accessed Aug 31, 2026)

3. Clark County and Washoe County — district-specific notes

Nevada's two largest school districts serve the vast majority of the state's students and have district-specific enrollment processes:

Clark County School District (CCSD — Las Vegas): The 5th-largest school district in the U.S., CCSD requires immunization records submitted through their online enrollment portal or at a district enrollment center. CCSD health services verifies records against NV WebIZ. Kindergarten enrollment opens in the spring — submit immunization records as early as possible to avoid last-minute delays.
Washoe County School District (Reno/Sparks): WCSD requires immunization records at enrollment registration. The district's health services team coordinates with NV WebIZ for compliance verification. WCSD also recommends (but does not require) a kindergarten readiness health screening.
Deadlines & Timing

Your Nevada school enrollment timeline

1

Check NV WebIZ for your child's complete record (4–6 weeks before school)

Ask your pediatrician to check NV WebIZ for completeness, or contact the Nevada State Immunization Program at (775) 684-5900. Verify all required doses are present.

2

Schedule catch-up doses if needed (2–4 weeks before)

If any required vaccines are missing, schedule a catch-up appointment. Nevada allows conditional enrollment while a documented catch-up schedule is in progress — but the catch-up must be actively progressing.

3

Submit to your school at enrollment

Provide your school with immunization documentation at enrollment registration. Most Nevada schools verify compliance through NV WebIZ — having an up-to-date registry record speeds up enrollment significantly.

4

7th-grade update: Tdap + MenACWY

Students entering 7th grade need Tdap and MenACWY documented. Schedule the 11-year well-child visit to receive both doses and update NV WebIZ.

Exemptions

Medical and religious exemptions

Nevada recognizes medical and religious exemptions from school immunization requirements under NRS 392.437 and NRS 392.439. Medical exemptions require a physician's written statement. Religious exemptions require a written statement from the parent. Nevada does not offer a personal belief or philosophical exemption.
