HR 1416 United States House · 119th Congress

Parental Oversight and Educational Transparency Act

This bill requires schools to obtain written parental consent before students participate in certain school activities. Specifically, it amends federal law to mandate that school districts notify parents 14 days in advance of such activities and receive their written permission. The policy directly affects parents (as consent providers) and students (as participants in the activities). It applies to activities described under the referenced section of the General Education Provisions Act, adding a new consent requirement to existing notification rules.
