Religious instruction; elective credit for release time further provided for

Summary

The bill mandates that every local school board adopt a policy allowing students to leave school during the day for off‑site religious instruction and receive elective credit for it. Parents must give written consent, and no public funds or staff may be used for the instruction or transportation. The measure formalizes released‑time programs that courts have previously upheld.
