HB 2331 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Allows students to apply sunscreen at school

HB 2331 allows Missouri public school students (including charter schools) to self-apply FDA-regulated sunscreen without needing parental or physician permission. If a student cannot apply sunscreen themselves, school staff may do so only with written consent from a parent or guardian. The bill also protects school employees and their employers from liability for adverse reactions or stopping sunscreen application, as long as they follow the consent rules. This policy directly affects students with sun sensitivity and school staff managing health needs during the school day.
