  • Exempt Students, Connecticut Immunization Survey
    Exempt Students, Connecticut Immunization Survey Results 2017–2018 The Connecticut Department of Public Health Immunization Program is pleased to make available the 2017-2018 Connecticut immunization survey exemption results by school. Please be aware that the data are limited in a number of ways, including those listed below. • All data are self-reported by schools and discrepancies may exist. The Immunization Program works with schools to resolve discrepancies and update immunization data, when possible. • Data release standards do not allow for data to be shared for schools with fewer than 30 students represented in the denominator. • Data are collected in the fall. Immunization rates may be higher than reported due to additional children receiving immunizations during the school year after data is reported. Also, the student body is dynamic and as students arrive and leave school, the immunization rates are impacted. • Children are allowed a medical or religious exemption to one or more vaccines. Vaccine exemption data is collected on the child and not on each vaccine. Therefore, children with exemptions are counted as exempt although they may have received some vaccines not counted in the survey. • Children without the required number of doses of vaccine do not necessarily have an exemption on file. • Children without a record of vaccination, but with serologic proof of immunity to certain diseases (measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis b, hepatitis a, and varicella), meet school entry requirements, and may be counted as vaccinated. Data definitions: † School returned survey and reported fewer than 30 total students, so data cannot be released Type: Public or private school Ex_Med: Percentage of all students attending school with a medical exemption.

    PAID ADVERTISEMENT CONNECTICUT ASSOCIATION OF INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS An Open Letter to Elected Officials in Connecticut As Heads of Independent Schools in Connecticut, responsible for the education and physical safety of children, we are heartbroken over the recent massacre in Parkland, Florida. We stand in support of the Parkland survivors and their efforts to affect change. Connecticut residents can take pride in the knowledge that our state is viewed nationally as a leader in advancing gun safety and that our legislators are committed to expanding existing protections and introducing thoughtful and reasonable new measures. Unfortunately, the shootings at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School are continuing evidence that true gun safety in Connecticut and across all of America remains an elusive goal. Although it is illegal to possess military grade guns and assault grade ammunition in Connecticut, our state borders are welcoming to all and our protection is therefore limited. For those of us who care for children in schools, December 14th 2012 is remembered as the saddest day in our careers. Twenty Connecticut children between six and seven years old and six adult staff members lost their lives while at school. The United States leads the world in the number of guns per capita; it leads in homicides, suicides and accidental deaths involving guns; and it leads the world in the number of children killed by guns, every year. In these grim statistical categories, no nation comes close to our level of violence and gun-related death. As long as we continue to view gun safety as a partisan, political conversation we will struggle to achieve the protection available in many other countries in the world.
