"New immigrants are coming to Tennessee public schools in record numbers, and federal law requires Tennessee to admit many of them whether or not they have had required immunizations.
The influx has come with no increase in nurse or bookkeeping staff, and schools are not required to track or report the number of children who show up each year without all their vaccinations or shot records."
