# Docket For Schools Guides These guides are for the State of Maine. Other guides can be found [here](https://docket.care/schools/guides). ## What Is Docket For Schools? Docket For Schools is an Immunization Information System (IIS) integrated web app for school nurses, administrators, registrars, superintendents, and public health stakeholders. It calculates each student's compliance with grade entry requirements, handles paper-record overrides and exemptions, and automates required state and federal reporting, saving school staff time and giving public health departments real-time, statewide visibility into student immunization data. ## The Basics Steps a first-time user generally might follow to get started with some students at their school.
