School & Child Care Immunization Rates
Why Is School Immunization Important?
All students and school staff members deserve a healthy school environment that supports their well-being and builds a strong foundation for learning. It takes an entire community to protect against serious disease. Because diseases can spread rapidly in a school environment, high vaccination rates - roughly 95% for each vaccine - can help protect students, staff, and community members from dangerous diseases.
Immunization Rates in Your Child's School or Child Care
Colorado law requires most schools and licensed child care facilities to report their immunization and exemption data to the state health department every year, and for the health department to share this data publicly. The data helps school administrators, parents and the public understand how protected a school community is against disease.
Parents and caregivers can learn more about vaccination coverage in their child's school district or the county in which their child attends child care by viewing data dashboards and fact sheets created by Immunize Colorado, linked below. Parents can also visit the health department website to see their school's or child care's specific data.
