DESCRIPTION

This proposal will require the Division of Family Services or the Juvenile Office to share information with a school superintendent or designee, upon request, regarding an active case involving a student. The information would then be told to teachers on a need to know basis, who are required to meet confidentiality requirements.

This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
