Washington State School Immunization Status Report Data
The Immunization and Child Profile Office collects data and produces reports on
the immunization status of students who attend public, private, and home schools
in Washington State. The office does not collect records of individual
students. The data is collected at the school level and is available for public
view.
Some important things to consider when reviewing the data:
- School data reports are produced twice
a year.
- On April 30 of each year, all
states are required to report immunization status of schools to the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The data
collection cut-off date for reporting to CDC is December 31 of
each year. Immunization coverage rates published in CDC's
Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report are derived from this
data.
- Data continues to be collected through
the end of the school year in an attempt to get a complete census of all
schools reporting for the year. The data is then processed and released
for public review. The reports posted on this website come from that
data.
- Immunization status reports come from the
Certificate of Immunization Status, which is parent-reported and is not
health care provider verified.
