Texas SB282 requires public schools to notify parents if a nurse is not present for more than 30 consecutive instructional days.
Texas SB282 mandates that public schools, including open-enrollment charter schools, inform parents if a full-time nurse or the equivalent is absent for over 30 consecutive instructional days. The principal must provide written notice within 30 instructional days of the absence. Schools may post the notice on their website, ensuring it is accessible from the homepage with no more than three links. The notice must be provided in a bilingual form for non-English speaking parents. This requirement does not apply to schools with fewer than 10,000 students.
