Summary
The bill lets physicians, nurses, and delegated school staff provide a range of health services in Kentucky public schools, provided they receive proper training and written approval. It also requires local school boards to allow younger students to possess and apply sunscreen, with parental permission for K‑5 and no written permission needed for grades 6‑12. The changes aim to ensure students receive needed care without missing school and to protect them from sun exposure.
