AN ACT REQUIRING VISION SCREENINGS FOR STUDENTS IN PRESCHOOL AND GRADE TWO.

HB 5851 requires schools to conduct vision screenings for all students in preschool and second grade. This bill directly affects young children in these specific educational settings by mandating routine vision checks. The key provision amends existing statute (section 10-214) to establish this screening requirement. The goal is to identify vision issues early, though the bill does not specify screening methods or consequences for failing screenings.
