relative to parental notice for non-academic surveys in public schools.

HB 1191 requires New Hampshire public school districts to email parents copies of all non-academic surveys at least 10 days before administration and obtain written parental consent for student participation. It specifically removes the previous exception that allowed the CDC's youth risk behavior survey to bypass parental consent, now requiring opt-in consent for all such surveys. Non-academic surveys include those about social behavior, family life, religion, politics, sexual orientation, drug use, or other non-academic topics. The bill directly affects parents of public school students and school districts, mandating new notification and consent procedures starting July 1, 2026.
