Bill > A3800

This bill, titled the "Parents' Bill of Rights Act," requires public schools and school districts to provide certain information to parents and guardians and obtain their consent before taking specific actions. The key provisions include giving parents the right to review curricula, access student records, learn about teachers and outside entities involved in their child's education, attend school board meetings, and be notified of safety incidents near the school. The bill also prohibits schools from requiring parents to sign non-disclosure agreements to access educational materials and mandates parental consent for collecting biometric data, student attendance at extracurricular activities, and the use of student images. The bill allows parents to file civil actions for injunctive relief if their rights are denied, and the state Attorney General can seek injunctions against schools that threaten or deny these parental rights.
