What Hawai‘i parents need to know: 7th grade health requirements for back to school Representatives from the Department of Health share what parents need to know about the health requirements students must complete before starting 7th grade.

HONOLULU (HI Now) - As students gear up for the new school year, the Hawaiʻi Department of Health is reminding families of important health requirements for incoming 7th graders. All students must complete a physical exam and receive three required vaccinations—Tdap, HPV, and MCV—before their first day of school. These can be done during a well-child visit with a healthcare provider. Parents should also bring the Student Health Record Form to their appointment and return the completed form to the school.
