According to reports, one school district in Sacramento refused to admit 145 unvaccinated students on the first day of school.
The kids in the Folsom Cordova Unified School District were sent home for lack of immunization records, as a result of the new state law in California which took effect in July 1, eliminating personal/religious belief exemptions for vaccines.

According to the Sacramento Bee, the new new law mandates that students entering the two “checkpoint years” of kindergarten and seventh grade must now provide full vaccination records.
And notifications are sent home, reminding parents of the need for their vaccination records to be update.
