The Back-to-School Vaccine Clinic is a community health event designed to help Raleigh students get their required state immunizations before the school year begins. What to Know: This clinic is specifically for children entering kindergarten, seventh grade, and twelfth grade. The event is free, but you should bring your child's immunization record and insurance card if you have them. A parent or legal guardian must accompany the student, and the staff will stop accepting patients at 7:15 PM. This is a highly practical weekday stop for parents who need to check school health requirements off their to-do list without scheduling a separate doctor appointment.
