Released-time religious instruction; require school districts to allow off-campus during school day.

Summary

The bill lets local school boards adopt policies that excuse students, with parental consent, to attend religious instruction off campus for at least one hour each week. The time counts as regular school attendance, students are not penalized, and districts may not provide or fund the instruction. It applies to public, charter, and non‑public school students in Mississippi.
