AI Summary

This bill amends Kentucky state law to require public schools with students in grades six through twelve to display a printed abstract of child labor laws starting in the 2025-2026 school year. The display must be prominently located within the school building and include information in both English and Spanish about prohibited occupations for minors and the maximum working hours allowed per day for each day of the week. The law builds upon existing requirements that schools display the national motto and allows for flexibility in how and where the child labor law information is presented, similar to other patriotic display provisions in the same statute. The requirement aims to ensure students are aware of legal protections and restrictions related to youth employment, providing important information about their rights and limitations in the workforce. By mandating bilingual displays in prominent locations, the bill seeks to make this information accessible to a wide range of students and potentially their families.
