• Administrators please be aware of the new immunization requirements for school enrollment that takes effect on July 1, 2019. Students will be required to have all required immunizations in order to avoid As of April 2, 2019, LDNW has the lowest immunization compliance rate (26.6%) of all the districts. The 73.4% noncompliance rate indicates the need for further monitoring and strategies to increase awareness and compliance with immunization laws for school enrollment. Lack of improving compliance will also place affected schools at an increased risk of audit and penalties from the state. Administrators can assist by informing their school sites to encourage families to utilize school based clinics at Columbus MS, Kennedy HS, Lawrence MS, and the clinic on the LD-Zelzah site. There is also a Wellness Center at Monroe HS. For further information regarding immunizations and enrollment, please feel free to call LD-Northwest Nursing Services at 818-654-1670.
