Oklahoma · 2026–2027 School Year

Oklahoma school immunization records:
what schools ask for and how to have them ready.

Oklahoma public and private schools must verify that every enrolling student has a current Certificate of Immunization Status on file under Oklahoma Statutes Title 70 §70-1210.192. This page covers which records Oklahoma law requires, how to retrieve them from OSIIS (the state immunization registry), and what happens if records are incomplete at enrollment. Oklahoma's 6th-grade meningococcal requirement is a common checkpoint that families miss if they haven't updated records since elementary school.

Required Documents

1. Which immunization records Oklahoma schools require

Under Oklahoma Statutes Title 70 §70-1210.192, no child may attend school without a current Certificate of Immunization Status or an approved exemption. The certificate is completed and signed by a licensed healthcare provider or OSDH county health department.

Oklahoma's required vaccines on the Certificate of Immunization Status for K–12 entry:

A Tdap booster is required at 7th grade entry. See the OSDH immunization requirements page for the current grade-by-grade schedule.

Getting Records Ready

2. How to get your immunization records ready

1

Request your record from OSIIS

OSIIS (Oklahoma State Immunization Information System) records doses administered by participating providers across Oklahoma. Your pediatrician or your OSDH county health department can print your child's OSIIS record at no charge.

2

Have your provider complete the Certificate of Immunization Status

Your pediatrician completes and signs the form. Bring the OSIIS printout to the visit. If any doses are missing, your provider can administer them and complete the certificate in one appointment. Always ask your pediatrician about your child's health needs.

3

Submit to the school at enrollment

Turn in the completed certificate to the school office. Oklahoma provides a grace period for transfers — contact your district for the exact window. Keep a copy for your records.

The OSIIS Registry

3. Retrieving records from OSIIS

OSIIS is Oklahoma's statewide immunization information system. Most Oklahoma providers report doses to OSIIS. If your child received vaccines in Oklahoma at any point, those records are likely in OSIIS. Your pediatrician or your county health department can access OSIIS and print a record.

For doses given outside Oklahoma: Out-of-state records do not automatically transfer to OSIIS. Bring a signed immunization record from your former provider. Your new Oklahoma pediatrician can enter those doses into OSIIS at the first visit, then complete the certificate.

Grade-Level Checkpoints

4. The 6th-grade meningococcal and 7th-grade Tdap requirements

Oklahoma requires the first dose of MenACWY (meningococcal conjugate vaccine) for 6th grade entry, and a Tdap booster for 7th grade entry. Many families get caught by these checkpoints if records haven't been updated since elementary school. Check your child's current certificate before middle school enrollment — ask your pediatrician if these are current.
