The State of Wyoming mandates immunizations for children attending a private, public, or religious child caring facility, preschool, or school (K-12), full or part time.
Schools and Child Caring Facilities are valuable partners in the fight against vaccine-preventable diseases. The Immunization Unit is committed to providing resources, information, and tools needed to ensure children are immunized appropriately.

Note: If your district’s registration occurs prior to identifying the specific school a child will attend, it is acceptable to write the school district name on the agreement, rather than the specific school name. However, the form must be included in the student’s record at the school in which they will attend, when identified, and be made available to WDH staff upon request.
In addition to the Agreement provided by WDH. The following forms of documented consent are also permitted and if used, must be made available to WDH upon request:
- Dated note in the student record documenting verbal permission
- Consent captured in a student management system (language must be consistent with the Agreement provided by WDH).
