Where to Get Immunizations
Tulsa City County Health Department provides no cost immunizations for non-insured students or those covered under Sooner Care or medicaid. Our registered nurses can also give immunizations to qualified students at their school site. During summer enrollment, the Caring Van will be at the TPS Enrollment Center providing free immunizations to students. Please check back for specific dates.
Exemption
Oklahoma law requires evidence of adequate immunizations for each child attending school. Children with specific medical contraindications to any immunizations may be allowed to attend if the medical reason is signed by a licensed physician and submitted to the school. Parents may apply for an exemption based on religious or personal beliefs. Exemption forms can be obtained from the Health & Wellness office, TPS Enrollment Center, Room 230.
