A private school in Miami is discouraging teachers from getting the COVID-19 vaccine – and in a letter to parents, the school says it will not employ anyone who has taken it.

Centner Academy’s new policy directs teachers to not get the vaccine or they won’t be allowed around students – effectively losing their jobs.

The policy has some parents looking for a new school.

“The whole year has been unbelievably shuffled for all of us to know what to do. And I don’t know if there’s going to be teachers there,” said one mother, who asked to be identified as only Lidia because she says she signed a document that prohibits parents from speaking ill about the academy.
