Georgia SB431 mandates schools to enroll foster care students within two days of a request by their parent or legal custodian.
Georgia SB431 amends the Code Section 20-2-670 to ensure that schools must enroll foster care students within two school days of a request by their parent or legal custodian. If a school fails to enroll a student within this timeframe, it may be subject to corrective action plans. The bill also allows for provisional enrollment for up to ten days if critical records are not yet available. Schools must provide contact information for the RESA student affairs officer and the Department of Education's chief privacy officer to the parent or legal custodian.
