Don't call CPS, just simply deny entry.

Second NY School Threatens to Call CPS Over 'Non-Compliance' of Mandatory Vaccination Law
A second school in New York, Chippewa Elementary, has sent out a letter to parents threatening the use of Child Protective Services if they refuse to vaccinate their children according to the new mandatory vaccination law. In a letter written by school nurse Patricia Anunziato and signed by principal Patricia Aubrey, it says, "If after 14 calendar days from the effective date of the exclusion notice, parents or guardians have not contacted the school to report the compliance action they have taken, the family may be referred to the Suffolk County Child Protective Services."
PJ Media reached out to the school and was directed to their public relations firm, Syntax. A representative, Mike Ganci, responded with an updated letter that contained an explanation for the CPS threat, but did not take it back.
"Unfortunately, the language used in some of the prior letters sent from individual schools was inconsistent and could have been perceived as alarming in regard to the process we would follow with families looking to obtain the proper records. It is not our intent to follow a process where our schools would contact Suffolk County Child Protective Services without exhausting all options beforehand. Please know this was not meant as a scare tactic for our families."
When pressed for clarification on what would trigger a call to child welfare, Superintendent Kenneth Graham responded from his PR firm, "The school district is obligated under New York State Law to report potential forms of educational neglect. Any situation that results in a student not attending school regularly could be considered a form of educational neglect."
