The bill amends existing Florida statutes regarding objections to instructional materials in K-12 education. It removes provisions that previously allowed parents and residents to object to specific instructional materials, including the requirement for school boards to adopt a policy for handling such objections. Additionally, it eliminates the requirement for public meetings of committees that would address these objections and the authority of the Commissioner of Education to appoint a special magistrate to resolve disputes over instructional materials. The bill also removes the requirement for district school boards to report on objections received and the outcomes of those objections.

Furthermore, the bill makes conforming changes to section 1014.05, which outlines school district notifications on parental rights, by deleting references to the procedures for parents to object to instructional materials. The overall effect of the bill is to streamline the process for selecting instructional materials by reducing the avenues for public objection and oversight, thereby shifting more control to district school boards in determining the materials used in classrooms. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2026.
