## Resource

More Wisconsin parents are opting out of required school vaccines, driven largely by personal conviction waivers — a trend surging since the pandemic. While overall vaccination rates remain high, waiver requests have jumped across districts, with some doubling. Officials attribute this to improved tracking and growing vaccine hesitancy, possibly sparked by COVID-19. They’re focusing on education and outreach, especially in underserved communities, to balance parental choice with student safety.
