Texas SB2278 mandates that school districts and charter schools notify parents of misconduct by educators involving students.

Texas SB2278 amends the Education Code to require school districts and open-enrollment charter schools to provide written notice to parents or guardians if there is reason to believe an educator engaged in misconduct with a student. The notice must be sent by mail, but may be sent by email if the board of trustees or governing body deems mailing too costly. This requirement takes effect starting with the 2025-2026 school year.
