Requiring school districts to offer parents the opportunity to object to educational materials and activities that are not included in approved curriculum or standards or that impair a parent's beliefs, values or principles.

HB 2141 requires Kansas school districts to adopt policies allowing parents to object to educational materials or activities not in the approved curriculum or that conflict with their sincerely held beliefs, values, or principles. Parents may withdraw their child from a class or activity without academic penalty, and schools must provide alternative assignments or accommodations. The bill specifies that exemptions do not excuse students from completing required coursework or graduation credits. It applies to all public school districts in Kansas and defines "educational materials" broadly to include textbooks, digital content, and videos, while excluding student presentations.
