House Bill No. introduced by M. Cunningham and others aims to revise school immunization and exemption data laws in Montana. The bill mandates that the governing authority of each school file an annual written report on immunizations and exemptions to the state by December 1 of each year. This report must include deidentified or aggregate data, specifically detailing the number of enrolled students, those with vaccine exemptions, fully vaccinated students, and those with conditional enrollment. Additionally, the bill amends existing laws to ensure that student immunization records are maintained in compliance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974.

The bill also updates terminology, replacing "pupil" with "student" throughout the text. It emphasizes that any student allowed to attend conditionally must obtain the required immunizations within specified timeframes or face prohibition from further attendance until compliance is achieved or an exemption is granted. The effective date for this act is set for July 1, 2025.
