What’s in it
AI summary School districts cannot sign students up for classes or conferences about human growth and development without written permission from a parent or guardian. Each year, school boards must also give parents information about the topics that will be covered in these programs.1
Read the official explanation
This bill prohibits a school district from enrolling a pupil in a course of instruction in human growth and development, and from facilitating a pupil’s attendance at an educational conference or seminar that includes information on human growth and development, unless the pupil’s parent or guardian files written informed consent with the appropriate principal. The bill also requires the board of directors of a school district to annually provide to a parent or guardian of a pupil enrolled in the district information about human growth and development that may be provided to pupils at an educational conference or seminar for which the school district facilitates pupil attendance. 3.16.2. The inclusion of this specification is intended to reinstate the requirement of political subdivisions to comply with any state mandates included in the bill.
