I'm still confused. Schools are required to require vaccines by state law.
Banning fluoridated water is a weird idea. I will have to look into the costs and benefits.

Yikes!
> Nineteen of those studies were considered to be high quality; of these, 18 reported an inverse association between estimated fluoride exposure and IQ in children. The 18 studies, which include 3 prospective cohort studies and 15 cross-sectional studies, were conducted in 5 different countries. Forty-six of the 53 low-quality studies in children also found evidence of an inverse association between estimated fluoride exposure and IQ in children.

They're estimating a 3 to 5 point IQ drop due to fluorinated water in childhood. On that basis I would have to support switching to free mouthwash.
One example of gutting the industry (announced today): ban fluoridated water.
