Hundreds Of Md. Students Not Allowed To Attend Class

WASHINGTON - About four hundred students in Prince George's County will not be allowed to attend school starting Wednesday because they did not get the state-required vaccinations.

The group includes kindergarten students but the majority, 259 seventh- graders, did not get vaccinated, or didn't provide the paperwork saying they did.

In a statement, the county's school system says they've made "extraordinary efforts" to reach every single student but that now parents need to do their part.

"As of Friday ... 155 kindergarten and 259 7th grade students are non- compliant and have received exclusion letters, and beginning Wednesday, November 5, these students will not be allowed to attend school," the statement says.

Mostly because of deadbeat welfare parents.

Too lazy to get their kids vaccinated, should be charged with neglect.

Their parents are still down south

There should be no laws or regulations forcing vaccination on anybody.

But if you crossed the border illegally you're exempt.

It should be up to the parents whether or not they want to vaccinate their child. Nothing should be forced on them.
