HB 125 requires Ohio school districts to grant excused absences for students in kindergarten through grade 12 to participate in scheduled 4-H and FFA programs. Students must provide the school principal with documentation of their participation, and schools must allow them to make up missed work without penalty to their grades.

This policy directly affects K-12 students involved in these agricultural youth programs by ensuring their school attendance records reflect participation in approved activities.
