HB 1285 requires Oklahoma school districts to create or use an online portal where parents can access, review, and comment on curriculum materials their children may encounter. The portal must include textbooks, library books, instructional content (including social-emotional learning materials), and digital learning resources, with features like searchability by school district, ISBN tracking, and reading-level alignment. School districts must begin uploading these materials to the portal starting in the 2026-2027 school year. The Oklahoma State Department of Education will oversee the portal's implementation and may establish rules to support it.
