SB 1606 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Local Education Agencies - As introduced, requires LEAs to publish the character education curriculum on the LEA's website. - Amends TCA Title 49.

SB 1606 requires Tennessee school districts (Local Education Agencies or LEAs) to publish their character education curriculum online on the district's official website. This bill amends Tennessee law to mandate this transparency, making the curriculum accessible to the public. It directly affects school districts by adding a new public posting requirement for their character education materials. The policy change is purely procedural, focusing on accessibility rather than altering curriculum content or funding.
