Every person gets one health story, and one private Family Stork email address every clinic already knows how to use. Tired of managing health records for yourself and everyone you love? Family Stork organizes them for you automatically.
While form names and deadlines differ, nearly all states require three things before your child starts school:
The details — which forms, what's the deadline, where to get them — are state-specific. That's what the checklists below cover.
Each checklist includes the official form names and numbers, physician-signature timelines, where to get the forms, and how Family Stork helps you keep them ready.
★ California's school health form checklist ranks #1 for "school health form deadline" on Brave Search.
School forms are the worst kind of paperwork — you need the right records from the right doctor, signed within the right timeframe, filed before the right deadline. Most parents are pulling immunization records from a portal, a fax, a paper card in a kitchen drawer, and a state registry printout. Then doing it again next year.
Family Stork works differently. Every person in your family gets a private email address shown on their record. Give it to your pediatrician. When they send visit summaries, immunization updates, and physical exam results to that address, the timeline files them automatically. When school enrollment comes around, the records are already there — organized, complete, ready to hand over.
No portal logins, no faxes, no digging through drawers. The clinic emails records; Family Stork keeps them. One record per child, from their first heartbeat and beyond.
Every state uses different form names and numbers. California's CDPH 286 is not Texas's stock immunization form. Your state checklist above has the exact forms your school district needs.
Physical exams expire. Some states require the exam within 12 months of enrollment; others within 6 months. Immunization deadlines vary by grade level. Your state page lists every deadline.
The immunization card is in one drawer. The physical exam is in MyChart. The dental screening was emailed as a PDF. Family Stork puts them all in one record — organized and searchable.
Different states require different vaccines, different forms, different timelines. When you move, your child's record moves with them — the private Family Stork address stays the same everywhere.
Most states require an immunization record proving your child has received state-mandated vaccines, a physician-signed physical exam (health appraisal), and sometimes dental and vision screenings. The exact forms, form numbers, and deadlines vary by state — find your state above for the complete list.
Your child's immunization records may be in your state's immunization information system (IIS), your pediatrician's office, or the patient portal for the clinic where vaccines were given. If you use Family Stork, every immunization sent to your child's private email address is already in their timeline. Full guide →
Most states allow a short grace period (typically 30 days) after enrollment, but policies vary. Some districts will exclude students who haven't submitted required forms by the deadline. Check your state's checklist above for specific timelines — and ask your school's front office about their grace period policy.
It depends on your state and grade level. Some states require updated physicals at kindergarten entry, middle school, and high school. Immunization records may need updates when new vaccines are added to the schedule. Your state checklist has the details.
Family Stork keeps every health record your child's school might need — immunizations, physicals, dental screenings — in one record per child.
