When your child receives an immunization, please fill out the Immunization Update form that you can pick up from the KLA office or the Family Center Receptionist. Turn the completed form in to one of the Center’s boxes. This form needs to be signed and the exact date of the immunization must be given. Copies of the state-prescribed immunization schedule are available in the Center’s Office. Parents choosing to not immunize their child for personal or religious reasons are required to sign the exempt portion of the Certificate of Immunization. A health care provider's signature is required for medical exemptions. In the event of an outbreak of a vaccine-preventable disease, for their safety, non-immunized children will not be allowed to attend KLA for the duration of the outbreak. The Center’s health care advisor will decide when non-immunized children may return to the Center.  Emergency lock-down procedures  Current First Aid, CPR, Bloodborne pathogen certificates relating to child abuse and neglect
