In 1987, about 150 Mass. kindergartners received religious exemptions, allowing them to not get one or more vaccines. That group accounted for less than 0.2% of the total incoming class that year. For the 2024-25 school year, that number reached 870 — just over 1.3%.

The reasons are deeply nuanced and varied, meaning the exemption covers a wide variety of circumstances.
