The Governor’s signing of Senate Bill 277 removes the personal belief exemption (PBE) from school immunization requirements. This means that beginning January 1, 2016, public and private preschools and schools can no longer accept PBE (for religious or non-religious reasons) for school entry.

Medical exemptions must be written by a licensed physician (MD or DO) and submitted through the website.
