HB336: School Information on Sickle Cell Disease

This bill requires local school systems to provide information about sickle cell disease to parents and guardians of students in grades six through twelve whenever other health information is shared.

What This Bill Does

  • Requires local school systems to give certain information on sickle cell disease.
  • Mandates that this information be provided when schools share other student health materials.
  • Targets the delivery of these facts specifically for parents and guardians of students in grades six through twelve.

Who It Names or Affects

Limits and Unknowns
