AI Summary
This bill allows parents to enroll their children in any public school in the state, regardless of where they live, by expanding the definition of "open enrollment public school" to include all public schools and removing previous restrictions on where students can attend. It also creates a limited exemption to the parental consent requirement for recordings under the Parental Bill of Rights, meaning parental consent is not needed for recordings made during required assessments or school-sponsored events that are open to the general public, which are defined as events generally accessible to parents, guardians, family, and community members.
