Our Children's Health Impacts Our Future Law; require notice of the importance of a medical and dental physical.

SB 2594, titled "Our Children's Health Impacts Our Future Law," requires Mississippi public schools to include a notice on student registration forms advising parents or guardians about the importance of obtaining a medical and dental physical for their child before the first day of school. The notice specifically states: "It is beneficial to the overall health of your child to receive a medical and dental physical prior to the first day of school if he or she has not already received one." This bill directly affects parents, legal guardians, or custodians of children enrolling in Mississippi public schools. It died in committee on February 4, 2025, and did not become law. The measure was procedural, adding a notice to existing enrollment paperwork without changing school health requirements.
