VACCINATION EXEMPTION
Daycare, Homeschool, Public & Private School enrollment in Minnesota ALL require either vaccination records, a medical exemption from a doctor or a notarized conscientious exemption from the Parents.

"Includes any public school... or nonpublic school, church, or religious organization, or home school in which a child is provided instruction..."
SCHOOL DIRECTORY
Every school aged child is in an information directory. FERPA and the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act (“MGDPA”) require that the School District, with certain exceptions, obtain written consent prior to the disclosure of personally identifiable information from a student’s education records. The School District, however, may disclose appropriately designated “directory information” to certain parties without written consent, UNLESS the District has been advised to the contrary in writing ANNUALLY by a parent or eligible student. Homeschooled students who are registered using the MACHE forms are automatically opted out since it includes the appropriate language.
