SB 1644 Arizona Senate · 57th Legislature - First Regular Session

ESAs; parental notification; waived rights

SB 1644 requires Arizona's education department to provide parents with a clear notice outlining all legal rights they waive when enrolling their child in the state's Empowerment Scholarship Account (ESA) program. This notice must be included in application materials and posted online, informing parents about rights relinquished upon program enrollment. The bill amends existing ESA program rules to mandate this specific parental notification process before enrollment. It directly affects parents and students choosing to participate in Arizona's ESA program instead of public schools. The bill does not change ESA funding, eligibility, or other program operations - only the required disclosure about waived rights.
