Local Education Agencies - As introduced, requires LEAs to provide a copy of a student's education records, upon request, and a copy of a student's draft individualized education program, unless previously declined, to the student's parent or guardian prior to a scheduled IEP team meeting. - Amends TCA Title 49, Chapter 10 and Title 49, Chapter 6, Part 1.

HB 619 requires Tennessee school districts (Local Education Agencies or LEAs) to provide parents or guardians with a student’s education records and a draft Individualized Education Program (IEP) at least 48 hours before an IEP meeting, unless the parent declines in writing. It directly affects parents of students with IEPs by ensuring they receive these documents in advance to prepare for meetings. Key provisions include a 10-day notice for meeting attendance and a 48-hour requirement for sharing requested records or draft IEPs, aligning with federal FERPA privacy standards. The bill was introduced in 2025 but withdrawn on February 5, 2025, and remains pending.
