Parents Bill of Rights Act

The Parents Bill of Rights Act requires schools receiving federal funding to give parents access to their children's school curricula, reading materials, and budget information. Parents would have the right to be heard at school board meetings, to inspect school budgets, and to know about violent incidents at their children's schools.

The bill also requires schools to obtain parental consent before administering certain surveys and to notify parents about changes in their child's services or monitoring. Schools that fail to comply could lose federal funding.
