ESAs; parental notification; waived rights.
HB 2704 requires Arizona's education department to provide parents with a clear notice detailing all legal rights they waive when enrolling their child in the state's Arizona Empowerment Scholarship Account (ESA) program. This notice must be included in application packets and posted on the department's website, ensuring parents understand the terms before enrollment. The bill does not change ESA funding or eligibility but adds this mandatory disclosure requirement to improve transparency. It directly affects parents and students participating in the ESA program, who must acknowledge these waived rights as part of the application process. The legislation focuses on informing families about program limitations without altering the existing ESA structure.
