Vaccine Laws State by State?

[MyZoeJane]

Please forgive me, I'm certain this question has been asked a zillion times, but I can't find a past thread...

Can someone direct me to a source where I can find which vaccines are required for Kindergarten entry in each state? (Well, specifically IL) My first DD ended up getting most of the "usuals", I only skipped MMR and Varicella. But I'm expecting again, and have had more time to "do my homework", so to speak... and plan to skip several others.

I'd like to know what I'm facing.

Also, know that #1. the "required" list WILL increase and #2. You don't HAVE to get any- you can use an exemption.

Thanks... I'm actually more interested in finding out which are required for my daughter who will begin Kindergarten this year. Like I said, I skipped a few with her. As for the soon to be baby, I have not completely decided which vaxes I will give, but I know it will be less than my first daughter got.

This gives the grounds for exemption, but not the list of acutal vaccines "required."

But I was able to dig up this:

http://www.ilga.gov/commission/jcar/...50B02400R.html

If anyone else in IL is interested.
