SB 108 West Virginia Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relating to voluntary immunization in private schools

SB 108 would amend West Virginia law to allow private schools (including parochial and church schools) to make immunizations voluntary for students, rather than requiring them. Currently, private schools must maintain immunization records (per §18-28-2(b)), but this bill removes that mandate. The change directly affects students enrolled in private schools and their families, as it eliminates the requirement for schools to enforce vaccine compliance. The bill does not alter immunization rules for public schools or child care centers.
