AI Summary
This bill establishes a "Parental Bill of Rights" that outlines the fundamental rights of parents to direct the upbringing, education, and care of their minor children. It prohibits the state or any government entity from infringing on these parental rights without demonstrating a compelling state interest. The bill details various parental rights, such as the right to access school records, be notified of criminal offenses against their child, and opt out of certain data collection. It also requires school districts to develop policies to promote parental involvement. The bill allows parents to bring legal action for violations of these rights and, if successful, to recover attorneys' fees and court costs.
