Texas HB692 requires public schools to notify parents if they lack a full-time nurse for over 30 consecutive school days.

HB692 mandates that public schools, including charter schools, inform parents if they do not have a full-time nurse or equivalent coverage for more than 30 consecutive school days. The notice must be provided within 30 days of the absence. Schools can fulfill this requirement by posting the notice on their website, ensuring it is accessible within three links from the homepage. The notice must be bilingual for non-English speaking parents. This law exempts schools with fewer than 10,000 students. The provisions take effect starting with the 2025-2026 school year.
