An Act amending the act of March 10, 1949 (P.L.30, No.14), known as the Public School Code of 1949, in student supports, providing for parental notification.

SB 749 requires Pennsylvania public schools to notify parents or guardians when students are involved in incidents that must be reported to the state, such as violence, weapon possession, or serious injuries occurring on school property, buses, or school activities. Schools must maintain current contact information for parents and use their preferred notification method (e.g., phone, email, text) when possible, with staff trained on identifying reportable incidents and procedures. Failure to comply could result in withheld state funding. The bill directly affects parents/guardians of students involved in these incidents and applies to all public school entities in Pennsylvania.
