AI Summary

This bill creates a new section of Kentucky Revised Statutes (KRS) Chapter 158, which deals with education. It defines "organization" as a federally recognized patriotic civic service group that involves or serves young people, and whose activities are educational, civic, character-building, patriotic, or moral in nature, without disrupting the school day. The bill permits these organizations to request and requires school district superintendents to provide an opportunity for representatives of such organizations to share information with students on school property during the school day. This information can be presented orally, in print, or both, and can include details on how the organization supports students' educational interests and civic involvement, aligning with existing state provisions for character education, civic literacy, and moral instruction. The bill specifies that presentations can occur in classrooms, during lunch, or at special assemblies, and printed materials can be distributed to students at the organization's expense, with the superintendent or their designee approving the specific day and time for these opportunities at each school at least once per school year.
