SB 1404 - This act requires school districts and charter schools to notify parents of enrolled students if the school district or charter school uses, has used in the past 12 months, or in the future intends to use a tutoring program or service that is at least 50% owned by entities outside the United States. The notification shall disclose the majority owner of the tutoring program or service and indicate whether such owner is designated as a foreign adversary of the United States under federal regulations as of the first day of the school year in which the notice is sent to parents.

This act is identical to SB 796 (2025) and similar to HCS/HB 1446 (2025).
