Will you require vaccination for students? Discover the legal implications of a mandate.

This week, the FDA authorized the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine for emergency use in adolescents 12-15 years old. This news has prompted secondary schools to consider mandating vaccination for students for the 2021-22 school year.

There are many legal considerations for schools in making this determination, including constitutional requirements and disability concerns. Some states are considering legislation in this area. There are also political issues to consider, depending on the expectations of your local school district constituents.

You must understand all the implications and learn from legal experts before making a decision.
