Introduced Text

Ohio HB847 establishes return-to-school support policies for students with traumatic brain injuries.

Ohio HB847, known as the Return to Learn Act, mandates that city, local, exempted village, and joint vocational school districts adopt policies supporting students returning to school after a traumatic brain injury. These policies must include a multi-disciplinary team, a reintegration plan, gradual academic workload increases, symptom monitoring, and specific accommodations. The bill also requires districts to either develop a coordinated support system for these students or refer them to an organization that can provide such support.
