05/01/2026 Referred to Senate Education
Summary
The measure prohibits public schools and districts from activating or viewing a student's camera, microphone, or location tracking on any school‑provided or personal device unless the student initiates it, a court orders it, or there is an imminent threat to life or safety. When such access occurs, schools must notify the student and their parent or guardian within 72 hours with a written explanation. The goal is to safeguard student privacy while preserving limited safety exceptions.
