Video cameras in self-contained classrooms for special education students at parent request.

This bill amends the Video Cameras in Public School Classrooms Pilot Program to allow parents to request video cameras in self-contained classrooms for special education students. District school boards must establish policies to provide these cameras upon request. The cameras must monitor all classroom areas except restrooms and changing areas. Video recordings must include audio and be available for viewing by parents, school employees, law enforcement, and the Department of Children and Families under specific conditions.
