AN ACT PROHIBITING SCHOOLS AND INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION FROM DISCRIMINATING AGAINST A STUDENT OR A STUDENT'S FAMILY MEMBER AS A RESULT OF SUCH STUDENT'S OR FAMILY MEMBER'S COVID-19 VACCINATION STATUS.

HB 6613 prohibits public and private schools and institutions of higher education from discriminating against students or their family members based on their COVID-19 vaccination status. This law directly affects students, their families, and educational institutions by banning actions like denying enrollment, access to activities, or services due to vaccination choices. The key provision explicitly requires schools to treat all students equally regardless of vaccination status, without creating exceptions for health-related policies. The bill applies broadly to all educational settings covered under the general statutes, aiming to prevent discrimination tied to vaccination.
