Bill Summary
CONCERNING THE MANNER OF DRESS DURING SCHOOL GRADUATION CEREMONIES.
AI Summary
This bill allows students to wear recognized objects of cultural or religious significance as an adornment during their public school or public institution of higher education graduation ceremonies, as long as the adornment complies with the institution's dress code policy and does not substantially disrupt or interfere with the graduation ceremony. The bill also prohibits schools from imposing restrictions on what students can wear under their required graduation attire beyond the dress code policy, as long as it does not infringe on the student's gender expression, gender identity, religion, or culture. The bill requires schools to develop and adopt a policy aligning with these requirements by the 2024-25 school year.
