LC 1273 Legislature · 2025 Regular Session

Revise education laws related to human sexuality and identity instruction

This bill amends Montana education laws to require parental consent for students to participate in identity instruction and strengthens parental notification rights regarding human sexuality education. It mandates that schools provide parents with written permission options before identity instruction and ensures parents receive advance notice at least 48 hours before any human sexuality or identity instruction events or materials are introduced. The legislation also requires school districts to publicly disclose curriculum materials and summaries annually, prohibits schools from accepting instruction from abortion service providers, and establishes reporting procedures for violations to the state Board of Public Education.
