This bill proposes an amendment to the educator code of conduct, specifically focusing on the responsibilities educators have towards parents. The amendment adds a new provision that explicitly includes "responsibility to parents" alongside the existing responsibility to students. The specific legal language being inserted is "and parents as defined in RSA 193:1, III," which clarifies the scope of this responsibility.
The bill aims to enhance the ethical framework governing educators by recognizing the importance of parental involvement and communication in the educational process. The effective date for this amendment is set to be 60 days after its passage, allowing time for implementation and awareness among educators and school administrators.
