If your child has begun immunizations but has not yet received all the required immunizations, he or she may be able to
attend school on a provisional or conditional basis. To qualify for provisional enrollment, your child must have received
at least one dose of each of the required immunizations. If your child falls into this category, you must submit an Iowa
Department of Public Health Provisional Certificate of Enrollment to the school. This “certificate” will expire in 60
days, so you must have your child completely immunized during this time or he or she will not be permitted to attend
school until the immunizations have been received. When your child has received all the required immunizations, you
must submit a completed Certificate of Immunization to the school.
