Pa. to Publish Vaccination Rates for Thousands of Schools Amid Measles Surge

Pennsylvania will begin posting vaccination rates for thousands of public and private schools online this fall following a Post-Gazette investigation that linked declining immunizations to a measles outbreak (at least 64 cases in the southeast). The dataset will cover vaccines for measles, polio, hepatitis B, varicella and pertussis and will include all schools; officials urge a standardized exemption form to curb misinformation and enforcement gaps. In 2025, about 16,000 students were admitted without the legal vaccines across 128 schools, highlighting herd-immunity vulnerabilities that this transparency aims to address.

West Bank school attack kills 14-year-old as settler violence escalates

A 14-year-old Palestinian student, Aws al-Naasan, was killed outside Mughayyir’s boys’ school by an Israeli reservist amid a wave of settler violence in the occupied West Bank that has targeted schools; the killings come as settlers raze a nearby village school and block access to education, with UN agencies warning of a broader pattern of attacks and displacement, while the Israeli military says the shooter acted after stones were thrown and troops were not present.

Reno Pediatricians Warn of GI Illness Surge Tied to Local School Outbreaks

Renown Children’s Hospital pediatricians warn of a rise in gastrointestinal illness among children in several Reno-area schools, mostly viral and typically short-lived. Most kids recover with rest and hydration, but families should contact a pediatrician if dehydration or persistent symptoms occur. The outbreaks affect five WCSD elementary schools—Libby Booth, Rita Cannan, Caughlin Ranch, Natchez, and Jerry Whitehead—with heightened sanitation and Connect Ed communications; there is also a high-infection classroom at Echo Loder Elementary.

SCOTUS sidesteps parental-rights clash over school gender-identity policies

The Supreme Court declined to hear a Florida couple’s challenge to a school district’s procedures on a student’s gender identity, leaving in place an 11th Circuit ruling that the district infringed parental rights but did not meet the substantive due–process standard, thereby preserving a narrow ruling and avoiding a broader national debate over parents’ rights versus student privacy in schools.
