AI Summary
This bill clarifies the scope of the Department of Education's harm-to-students registry, which is a database of individuals found to have harmed a student. Specifically, it amends the definition of "employee" to include contractors and volunteers only if their roles involve close contact with students, and it explicitly excludes K-12 students themselves from being listed on the registry. These changes aim to reduce administrative burdens while maintaining student safety by ensuring the registry accurately reflects individuals who pose a risk due to their direct interaction with students.
