Discipline management and access to telehealth mental health services in Texas public schools.

The bill amends the Education Code to revise discipline management and access to telehealth mental health services in Texas public schools. It limits out-of-school suspensions to three days and allows in-school suspensions without time limits. Students in grades below three can only be placed in out-of-school suspension for specific offenses. The bill also allows for virtual disciplinary alternative education programs for expelled students and requires students with disabilities to continue receiving educational services.
