This bill requires all school employees to respond honestly and completely to written requests by parents and legal guardians regarding information relating to their children.
AI Summary
This bill, known as the Honesty and Transparency in Education Act, mandates that educators credentialed by the New Hampshire Department of Education must respond honestly and completely to written requests from parents and legal guardians about material information concerning their enrolled child, within 10 business days, unless doing so would put the student at imminent risk of physical harm, abuse, or neglect, in which case the educator must report to the department of health and human services and can withhold only the information causing the risk. The State Board of Education will adopt rules to incorporate this requirement into the code of ethics and conduct for educators by June 30, 2027, and violations will be subject to investigation and potential disciplinary action.
