SB 413 Oklahoma Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Schools; creating the Oklahoma Sexual Education Reform and Parental Rights Protection Act; requiring written consent for a student to participate in certain instruction. Effective date. Emergency.

SB 413 requires written parental consent for students to participate in certain sexual education classes in Oklahoma schools. It defines "comprehensive sexual education" (which includes topics like non-heterosexual orientations, contraceptive methods without risk emphasis, or gender identity beyond binary concepts) as prohibited, and mandates "optimal sexual health education" (focusing on abstinence, heterosexual marriage, and traditional family values) instead. School districts must create procedures for obtaining written consent, post required information online, and use only approved textbooks/materials. The law directly affects students, parents/guardians, and school districts by changing consent requirements and restricting curricular content.
