IMMUNIZATIONS REQUIRED FOR 7TH GRADEYour student will need proof of the following immunizations before going into the 7th grade.
Your child's schedule will be withheld
next fall until his/her school immunization records are up-to-date. Your child will also not be able to
attend school on first day until immunizations complete. Please avoid all the unpleasant hassles and get the immunizations early. Please bring your child's complete immunization records to the school clinic to update your child’s records or email it to school nurse.

  • Tetanus/Diphtheria/pertussis-containing vaccine (unless a booster dose was received
    within the past five years),
  • Meningococcal vaccine (one dose after age 11 and every 5 years after last dose)
  • Varicella vaccine (two doses received on or after 1st birthday)
  • Hepatitis A vaccines (2 doses)
  • MMR vaccine (two doses received on or after 1st birthday)
The vaccines listed above are required
 in addition to
 those required by earlier laws. A signed statement of varicella disease will count towards the varicella requirement. It is necessary for your child to be in compliance
before the start of school 2019-2020.
PROOF OF RESIDENCYIn McKinney ISD it is very important that we work to make sure that students are attending school in the appropriate 
attendance zone, understanding that it can be confusing. In order to
accomplish this, we are requiring you provide proof of residence annually to your student's school upon enrollment. Acceptable proof of residence is one of the following
:
  • A copy of a current or previous month utility bill (electric, gas, water) which shows the current usage on it.
  • A current lease (for 30 days until a utility bill is available). The lease must have the move in date clearly 
    stated.
  • If you are under contract
    to purchase a home, a copy of the signed dated contract with the closing date is 

    clearly 


    stated
    . If the closing date is after September 1 of the current school year, monthly tuition payments shall be made
    until the closing date per MISD Board Policy.
  • If you have recently purchased your home, a copy of the closing papers will suffice until a utility bill is available (within 30 days).
If you are living with a relative or friend within the MISD attendance boundaries, an affidavit must be completed
and notarized at the school as well as
submitting a current utility bill.
This is very important, so please make every effort
to provide the documentation. Students who are 
unable to produce documentation to verify residency by August 30, 2019, may not be able to 
attend a McKinney ISD school and will be subject to withdrawal.
