Summary: AN ACT relating to education; specifying procedures and requirements for school districts to provide parents and guardians notice of information regarding students and the rights of parents and guardians to make decisions regarding their children; specifying that school districts cannot prohibit parental or guardian notifications and involvement in critical decisions involving students; specifying procedures for resolving parent or guardian concerns and complaints; specifying duties for school districts; requiring adoption of necessary policies, rules and procedures; and providing for effective dates.

Why It Matters: Access to healthcare is important to girls. Schools play a critical role in ensuring our children's health is addressed during school hours. This bill has been improved by allowing federal screenings to occur without parental approval. However, the bill would still require parents to opt-in to allow their children to receive health services at school and puts undue pressure on nurses and teachers as they choose to care for students.
