The "Right To Challenge Act" mandates that local school districts establish and publicly post policies regarding materials authorized for student use, as well as procedures for addressing complaints about materials deemed harmful or age-inappropriate. Specifically, the bill requires each local school board to adopt a complaint resolution process by November 1, 2027, which includes steps for parents or guardians to submit written complaints, the principal's investigation of these complaints, and a timeline for determining the appropriateness of the material in question. The process also allows for appeals to the school board, which must provide a written decision within 30 days of the appeal hearing.

Key provisions of the bill include the definitions of "material" and "harmful to minors," as well as detailed procedures for handling complaints, including timelines for responses and the requirement for all decisions to be public records. The bill inserts new language into RSA 189, specifically creating a new subdivision (189:74-a and 189:74-b) that outlines these requirements, while deleting any conflicting provisions in current law. This legislation aims to ensure transparency and accountability in the selection and use of educational materials in schools.
