They should never allow another vaccine again
There are exemptions they should use for school in New Jersey
If you never used the exemption before, doesn't mean you can't start now - you didn't know and/or you had a change of reglious belief (do not need to say that)
Here is the link to the exemption in NJ

Religious Exemptions:
N.J.S.A. 26:1A - 1 provides an exemption for pupils from mandatory immunization "if the parent or guardian of the pupil objects thereto in a written statement signed by the parent or guardian upon the ground that the proposed immunization interferes with the free exercise of the pupil's religious rights." All schools, child care centers, and local health officers may be advised that the religious exemption extends to private, parochial, and public institutions. When a parent or guardian submits their written religious exemption to immunization, which contains some religious reference, those persons charged with implementing administrative rules at N.J.A.C. 8:57 - 4.4, should not question whether the parent's professed religious statement or stated belief is reasonable, acceptable, sincere and bona fide. In practice, if the written statement contains the word "religion" or "religious" or some reference thereto, then the statement should be accepted and the religious exemption of mandatory immunization(s) granted. The language requiring how the administration of immunizing agents conflicts with the student's religious beliefs does not mandate specificity as to membership in a recognized church or religious denomination. NJDHSS will seek to amend the rules at N.J.A.C. 8:57 - 4.4 through the Administrative Rules process to be consistent with N.J.S.A. 26:1A - 1.

2. Are vaccines required for children to attend school and daycare in New Jersey?
New Jersey has mandatory vaccination regulations, however, a child can attend public or most private schools with select or no vaccines if the parent/guardian provides a valid medical or religious exemption letter to the school administrator. Private and religiously affiliated schools may or may not accept religious vaccine exemptions, however. NJ does not currently allow parents to use a conscientious/philosophical vaccine exemption, which would change if bill A260/S1071passes into law.
5. Does my child qualify for a religious exemption and how do I claim this?
In order to qualify for a religious exemption, you must have sincere religious beliefs that prohibit vaccination. A valid religious exemption letter is also required to legally exempt a child from mandated vaccines. A parent/guardian must write the letter and should include the NJ state law that defines the right to a religious exemption and include an explanation as to why the practice of vaccination conflicts with your religious beliefs/ tenets. You are not obligated to disclose your religion to obtain a religious exemption. In the recent past, school officials have erroneously requested letters from clergy or they have questioned a parents religion, as well as other discriminatory practices. According to a Dec. 1, 2008 memo by the NJ Department of Health and Senior Services, school administrators were specifically instructed to avoidsuch practices. The memo itself can be accessed here .

Q: What should be included in an acceptable religious exemption?
A: A religious exemption is not the same as a philosophical, moral or conscientious exemption. A religious exemption does not have to include the name of the religion, nor does it need to be notarized nor does it need to be signed by a religious leader. It can be filed by a parent or guardian of a minor or by an adult individual.
All schools, child care centers, and local health officers may be advised that the
religious exemption extends to private, parochial, and public institutions. When a
parent or guardian submits their written religious exemption to immunization,
which contains some religious reference, those persons charged with
implementing administrative rules at N.J.A.C. 8:57 4.4, should not question
whether the parent's professed religious statement or stated belief is reasonable,
acceptable, sincere and bona fide. In practice, if the written statement contains the word "religion" or "religious" or some reference thereto, then the statement should be accepted and the religious exemption of mandatory immunization(s) granted.

So some sort of a statement that "In compliance with N.J.S.A. 26:1A, the administration of immunizing agents conflicts with the students religious beliefs" should be sufficient. (see above)
If you never used the exemption before, doesn't mean you can't start now - you didn't know and/or you had a change of reglious belief (do not need to say that)
