HB 92 Wyoming House · 2024 Regular Session

Protection of parental rights.

HB 92 clarifies that Wyoming courts and state agencies cannot infringe on parental rights without proving a compelling state interest using the least restrictive means. It specifically requires school districts to communicate and disclose information about students to parents to protect those rights, amending education statutes to mandate this communication. The bill directly affects parents, school boards, and educational agencies by establishing new disclosure obligations. It takes effect on July 1, 2024, and does not alter existing parental rights protections but codifies requirements for school communication.
