This week, Seattle Public Schools ramped up its effort even further, telling families that schools would turn away any remaining students who were not compliant.

At a time when states and school districts are exploring strategies to increase vaccination rates and avoid outbreaks, the tactics in Seattle appear to be paying off in a region with plenty of vaccine skepticism. The number of students with incomplete or noncompliant records — once around 7,000 — has dropped steadily to just a few hundred on Wednesday, the deadline for students to show their vaccination paperwork.

New Jersey is likewise trying to curb the rise in number of persons claiming exemptions for their children.
