Bill > SB905

This bill modifies existing Oregon law regarding how school districts, education service districts, and public charter schools must share information about their Healthy and Safe Schools Plan. The key changes streamline the requirements for sharing test results and annual statements, primarily by removing some redundant disclosure methods. Specifically, the bill eliminates the requirement to provide printed copies of test results and annual statements at administrative headquarters, focusing instead on digital communication. Schools must now share test results by posting them on their website and sending electronic mail to staff, students, and parents. The annual statement must still include critical information like contact details for plan administrators, compliance certification, and a summary of exposure reduction activities. The bill maintains the requirement that these annual statements be posted on the school's website, but removes the previous mandate to have printed copies available. The Department of Education is still required to develop rules for implementing these requirements in consultation with the Oregon Health Authority and other stakeholders, ensuring a collaborative approach to school safety information dissemination.
