HB 692 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to a notification requirement if a public school, including an open-enrollment charter school, does not have a nurse assigned to the school during all instructional hours.

HB 692 requires public and open-enrollment charter schools in Texas to notify parents in writing if they lack a full-time nurse (or equivalent coverage) for more than 30 consecutive instructional days in a school year. Schools must provide this notice by the 30th instructional day after the shortage begins, offering bilingual options for non-English speaking families and retaining copies. Schools may post notices online via a three-click accessible link on their website. The law applies to all schools except those with fewer than 10,000 students and takes effect for the 2025-2026 school year.
