Information on Vaccines and Immunization for Schools. Your Guide to Learning with Brainfood Academy.
All public schools are required to have updated vaccination and immunization records. And most private schools adhere to this practice. Being an online facility, it is not necessary. We are a private school with the option for our students to come and go at will. Any student who leaves our academy will be required to show updated vaccination and immunization records. Most states do have some exemptions from this legislation. This link to requirements will help you discover if you can be exempt from this process due to religion, special circumstances, and other conditions. Listed here on this site.
