Comprehensive sexual health education and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevention education: outside consultants.

Summary

The bill amends the Education Code so school districts must tell parents about comprehensive sexual health and HIV prevention lessons, especially when outside experts teach them. Parents can view any written or audiovisual material, copy non‑copyrighted handouts for up to 10¢ per page, and opt their child out of the instruction or related surveys without needing active consent. It also sets notice requirements and limits state reimbursement for the added costs.
