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 1866 creates Oklahoma's "Sexual Education Reform and Parental Rights Protection Act," requiring written parental consent for students to participate in "comprehensive sexual education" (as defined by the bill). The bill prohibits curricula that promote non-heterosexual orientations, sexual activity outside marriage, or gender identity concepts beyond male/female, while mandating "optimal sexual health education" that emphasizes abstinence and marriage. School districts must adopt procedures for parental consent, post required information on websites, and ensure only certified teachers lead specified classes. The law directly affects all Oklahoma public school students, parents/guardians, and school districts offering sexuality-related instruction.
