AI Summary
This bill establishes statutory authorization for school-based health centers in Washington. It allows school districts to enter into agreements with healthcare providers to establish these centers, which provide services exclusively to district students, employees, and their dependents. The bill sets specific requirements for these agreements, including limiting the lease term to 10 years, requiring mutual agreement for renewals, and stating that the district is not required to receive fair market value for the leased area if it determines the health center will provide sufficient benefit. The legislature recognizes the potential benefits of school-based health centers, such as improved educational outcomes, increased access to healthcare, and better support for at-risk students.
