A SUMMARY OF HOUSE BILL 4871 AS INTRODUCED 9-28-99
House Bill 4871 would amend the Revised School Code to require the officials of a public school to ensure that each notice pertaining to a student that is provided to the custodial parent of a pupil is also provided to the noncustodial parent. This requirement would apply if the noncustodial parent had notified school officials of his or her desire to receive notices, and had provided school officials with a current address where notices should be sent. Under the bill, the notice requirement would not apply to a noncustodial parent if school officials had notice that the parent was prohibited from having access to the student's school records (or other information) by a protective order.
