The bill requires any school or school‑sponsored activity to inform a child’s parent, guardian, or caretaker when a mandated reporter files a suspected abuse or neglect report about an incident that occurred at the school, except when the parent or guardian is the subject of the report. The notice must be given no later than 24 hours after the report is made. The measure seeks to keep families promptly informed while protecting the reporter’s identity.
