HB2431

Kansas HB2431 establishes the student secular bill of rights to protect students from religious coercion and discrimination in public schools.

Kansas HB2431 enacts the student secular bill of rights to establish statutory protections against religious coercion and discrimination in public schools. Students have the right to practice any religion of their choice on school property or at school events, refuse to engage in religious discussions, and reject unwanted proselytizing. Schools must be free from school-sponsored religious displays, teachings, or practices. The bill prohibits discrimination based on religious beliefs or lack thereof and ensures students are not offered incentives to participate in religious activities.
