  • Immunization

    By state law, a valid certificate of immunization (Georgia Form #3231) or a notarized statement of religious exemption (Form #2208) is required for enrollment. The certificate of immunization must be completed by the health department or your private physician. A valid Form #3231 must be marked with either "Date of Expiration" or as "Complete for School Attendance." (A certificate marked with a "Date of Expiration" expires on the date indicated. A current certificate must be submitted within 30 days of expiration.) A medical exemption, if applicable, should be noted on Form #3231 with a current date of expiration. You may request a form from your school for religious exemption.

    Please review immunization requirements for students entering 7th grade and a TDAP-Meningitis parent fact sheet. The new vaccine requirements apply to students who are born on or after 1/1/2002 AND entering 7th grade. The requirements also apply to students who are new entrants to 8th-12th grade. New entrants are students who have never attended any school in Georgia or have not attended any school in Georgia for at least one full school year.

    Before starting the 2021-22 school year, all students entering or transferring into 11th grade will need proof that they received a meningococcal booster vaccine (MCV4) on or after their 16th birthday.

    • MCV4 vaccines must be documented on Georgia Form 3231 Certificate of Immunization.
    • Students who are not 16 years old do not have to get the vaccine until their 16th birthday.
    • Note that this booster vaccine is required in addition to the MCV4 vaccine that was required for your child prior to his or her beginning 7th grade.

    Students can get vaccinations and certificates of immunization from their private physician or at any of the local health department offices.

      Gwinnett County Public Schools (GCPS) implemented The Homeless Education Program (HEP) to ensure access to a free, appropriate public education for children and youth experiencing homelessness. The Homeless Education Program operates in accordance with the McKinney-Vento Homeless Education Act, Title VII- B, reauthorized in 2015. GCPS assigns a Homeless Program Social Worker to oversee The Homeless Education Program. The Homeless Program Social Worker assists the local schools to assure identified homeless children and youth receive the following services:

      • Timely Enrollment
      • Transportation
      • Education Related Support Services (ERSS)
      • Community Resource Information

      The primary goal of the Homeless Program Social Worker is to eliminate barriers to school enrollment and promote academic success for all students. In addition to providing support to local schools, the Homeless Program Social Worker along with the school social workers serves as the link between families and community resources. The Homeless Program Social Worker is responsible for providing on-going training to families, schools, and community resources in an effort to promote awareness, education and most of all sensitivity to the needs of families/students experiencing homelessness.
