SB 805 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Education, Dept. of - As introduced, changes the date, from October 15 to October 1, by which the department must notify local education agencies (LEAs) of all state and federal grants available to assist the LEA in expanding mental health services and resources in schools. - Amends TCA Title 49.

SB 805 changes the deadline for the Tennessee Department of Education to notify local school districts about available state and federal grants for mental health services in schools, moving it from October 15 to October 1 each year. This adjustment provides school districts with earlier access to information about funding opportunities to expand mental health resources. The bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 49, Section 49-1-107, without altering the grants themselves. School districts (local education agencies) directly benefit from this timeline change.
