The bill amends the Revised School Code of Michigan, specifically section 1135, to update terminology and clarify procedures regarding pupil enrollment and record requests. Key changes include replacing the term "student" with "pupil" throughout the text, and changing "person" to "individual" in the context of enrollment. The bill mandates that upon a pupil's first enrollment, the enrolling individual must be notified in writing within 30 days to provide either a birth certificate or other reliable proof of the pupil's identity and age. If the individual fails to comply, the school district must notify them that non-compliance will result in a referral to local law enforcement.

Additionally, the bill introduces a new requirement that schools must not provide a pupil's student record to a new school unless they have received written confirmation of the pupil's enrollment at that school. It also emphasizes that any affidavits received that appear inaccurate or suspicious must be reported to law enforcement. The bill maintains the existing protections regarding the disclosure of personally identifiable information in student records, ensuring compliance with federal privacy laws.
