Rep. Clay Staires

Primary HB 1425

Signed into law · Oklahoma House · Lead sponsor

Schools; directing school district boards of education to adopt a policy regarding student participation in released time courses.

Maddy summaryThis bill requires Oklahoma school districts to create policies allowing students to be excused from regular classes to attend religious or moral instruction courses taught by outside groups off school property. The policy limits participation to a maximum of three class periods per week and mandates that parents provide written consent while ensuring no school funds, personnel, or resources are used for the instruction. Additionally, the bill grants immunity from liability to school districts for incidents occurring during these off-site courses and exempts the instructors from standard teacher licensure requirements. Students attending these courses will still be counted as present for attendance purposes and can earn elective credit based on a neutral evaluation of the course materials and instructor qualifications.
