[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teacher here.  We can debate how effective requiring vaccinations for all activities would be, but I just wanted to address the original concern.

Activities other than sports are often very informal, such as kids getting together after school (mostlyl in high school) for club meetings.  Because kids don't have to formally register to be a part of such clubs, it would be difficult to require or track vaccinations, unless you made them bring their vaccine cards to enter a club meeting.  If this were going to happen, [b]we should just require vaccines for all MCPS students,[/b] which I know is also debatable.

I just wanted to explain the most likely reason why they have required the vaccine for sports participation, which also requires a physical and parent permission, and not other after school activities.[/quote]

There is not a chance that requiring vaccines for all MCPS students is a good idea.

We definitely should NOT require vaccines for all MCPS students.  [/quote]
