AI Summary
This bill aims to allow school bus drivers, who are licensed under state law, to administer epinephrine auto-injectors to students in the event of an allergic emergency. The bill requires parents or legal guardians to provide the school with a letter or prescription from the child's primary care physician notifying the school of the child's allergy and the need for epinephrine administration. The school must then promptly notify the school bus service provider of the child's allergy and provide a copy of the physician's documentation.
