I thought ever school district in the country required you bring in your "papers" LOL before they start-
For example, my girl starts kindergarten this fall-
Parents, please bring with you:
Birth Certificate
Social Security Card
Proof of Residency
Proof of Current Immunizations
Immunization Requirements
Please visit the Health department for information.

So are these anti-vax idiots not only causing harm to their kids but having to home-school thus "teach" them as well? That becomes an even more scary thought......

Medical necessity is the only valid reason to refuse vaccination. Everything else is pure, unadulterated bullshit.
