Parents' Bill of Rights Act ensures parents' rights over their child's education and school activities.
The Parents' Bill of Rights Act mandates that public schools and school districts provide parents with certain information and obtain parental consent before taking specific actions. Parents and guardians have the right to review curricula, books, and educational materials, access student records, and be informed about incidents affecting student safety. Schools must also provide class syllabi and reading lists at the start of each school year. Schools cannot require nondisclosure agreements for accessing materials.
