Getting Your Ducklings in a Row©

K and Grade 1 eligibility and vaccination requirements

Getting Your Ducklings in a Row is a booklet created to give parents basic information regarding age and vaccination requirements of school systems serving the majority of military children. Most military families already know that school entry requirements vary from state to state. It is also important to note that individual districts can (and do) impose additional requirements so variations can also be seen in the same state. Our best advice is to contact your new school district to make sure you have the most accurate information about their requirements and to be careful about the details. All 50 states, the District of Columbia, and DoDEA are represented in this publication.
