Bill Summary
An Act relating to public school students who are deaf or hard of hearing.
AI Summary
This bill amends Alaska's education laws to require school districts to provide comprehensive, neutral, and unbiased information to parents of children who are deaf or hard of hearing. It mandates that districts allow parents to choose the method of communication they deem most appropriate for their child, and that districts deliver services through professionals trained in the chosen method. Additionally, the bill requires the state Department of Education to support one or more programs for deaf students, which may include residential services in collaboration with a non-governmental organization.
