Relating to excused absences from public school for students with a menstrual disorder.

SB 774 allows public school students in Texas with a diagnosed menstrual disorder (such as endometriosis or PCOS) to be excused for up to 10 days per school year. Students or their parents must provide physician documentation confirming the disorder, and schools cannot penalize these absences. The bill ensures excused days count toward attendance averages and requires schools to provide reasonable time to make up missed work. It takes effect for the 2025-2026 school year. This directly affects students with qualifying health conditions and public school districts in Texas.
