Oklahoma HB2890 mandates schools to include parents in student communications unless they opt out, with emergency exceptions.

Oklahoma HB2890 amends student communication rules for schools. It requires school personnel to include parents in electronic or digital communications with students, unless parents opt out. Parents can opt out at any time and choose specific communication types. Exceptions are allowed in emergencies, with subsequent notification to parents. Schools must use approved platforms for automatic parent inclusion. The State Department of Education will develop training for school personnel on these communication requirements. Violators will face administrative leave during investigations.
