Relating to: notifying parents if a pupil is removed from the classroom. (FE)

SB 612 requires school principals to notify parents in writing whenever a student is removed from a classroom in a way that reduces instructional time for the class. Notifications must be delivered electronically (or by mail if parents opt out) by 5 p.m. the same day and cannot include personal student information. Schools must report annual removal counts to their school board by October 1, and school boards must submit this data to the state superintendent by December 1. The bill directly affects parents of K-12 students, school principals, and school districts, creating a standardized process for transparency about classroom disruptions. It takes effect July 1, 2026.
