In June 2019, New York State (NYS) adopted Senate Bill 2994A eliminating nonmedical vaccine exemptions from school entry laws. Since student noncompliance with the law required school exclusion, we sought to evaluate the law’s effects on student enrollment and absenteeism, and school workloads related to its implementation. In November 2019, we sent an electronic survey to NYS (excluding New York City) schools. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, outreach was curtailed in March 2020 with 525 (14%) of 3,759 eligible schools responding. To account for non-response, results were analyzed using inverse probability weighting. After weighting, 39% (95% CI: 34%, 44%) of schools reported enrollment changes and 31% (95% CI: 26%, 36%) of schools reported absenteeism related to the law. In addition, 95% (95% CI: 93%, 98%) of schools reported holding meetings and/or preparing correspondence about the law, spending a mean of 14 (95% CI: 11, 18) hours on these communication efforts. Schools in the highest pre-mandate nonmedical exemption tertile (vs. lowest) were more likely to report enrollment and absenteeism changes, and higher workloads. While our results should be interpreted with caution, changes in student enrollment, absenteeism, and school workloads may represent important considerations for policymakers planning similar legislation.
