Bill Summary

Requires school districts and charter schools to notify parents if schools use tutoring services or programs owned by a foreign entity

AI Summary

This bill requires school districts and charter schools to notify parents about tutoring services or programs that have at least 50% foreign ownership. The notification must include the name of the tutoring program, the majority owner, and whether that owner is based in a country designated by the U.S. Department of State as a Country of Particular Concern (CPC). Schools must provide this notice by posting it on their website and within any application or software used in conjunction with the foreign-owned tutoring service. The bill aims to increase transparency for parents by ensuring they are informed about the origin and ownership of tutoring services used by their children's schools. The notification requirement applies to current, past (within the last year), and future tutoring programs with significant foreign ownership, giving parents insight into potential foreign educational service providers in their local schools.
