"Parents' Bill of Rights Act"; requires public school and school district provide certain information to parents and guardians and obtain parental consent prior to taking certain actions.
S 3292, the "Parents' Bill of Rights Act," requires New Jersey public schools and districts to provide parents and guardians with specific information about their child's education and obtain written consent for certain actions. Schools must share curriculum materials, teacher qualifications, data collection details, and safety incident notifications (like weapon sightings or police investigations near schools), and provide syllabi and reading lists at the start of each school year. Written parental consent is required before schools collect biometric data, allow participation in field trips/activities, or use student photos/videos. The bill also prohibits schools from requiring nondisclosure agreements to access educational materials and allows parents to seek court action or Attorney General intervention if their rights are denied.
