Relating to the members of a school district's local school health advisory council.
SB 939 requires Texas school districts to amend their local school health advisory council membership rules. The bill mandates that at least half of council members must be parents of enrolled students (not district employees), with one such parent serving as chair. It also requires districts to appoint at least one high school student who applied for the position, and to notify students about the opportunity through campus postings. The law takes effect for the 2025-2026 school year.
