The Centers for Disease Control recommends that children ages 6-15 should get a covid vaccine.  You may wish to read the CDC website to further understand how the CDC recommends children get vaccinated.

Okay. How can I find out if it is a state requirement?

CDC recommendations about schoolchildren are not binding on states or school districts. States and school districts can decide how and when they will offer the vaccine.  This page shows that different states have different decisions about school attendance for students who are not vaccinated.

Okay. So should I check with the state or the school district?
