Relating to military connected students

HB 2058 establishes new protections for military-connected students in West Virginia schools. It defines these students as those with parents/guardians serving in active duty, reserves, National Guard, or who died in service, and requires schools to allow remote enrollment without physical registration for families relocating due to military orders. The bill mandates schools to accept temporary addresses (like base housing) for residency, guarantee equal access to all courses and activities, and provide counseling services when a parent is activated. It also requires schools to coordinate promptly for students with disabilities during transfers and notify teachers about military-connected students (with parent opt-out). These provisions directly affect military families moving within West Virginia and ensure smoother educational transitions.
