This bill mandates that school districts in New Jersey establish policies regarding the use of sunscreen and sun-protective clothing, such as hats and sunglasses, for students during outdoor activities at school and school-sponsored events. The legislation specifies that these policies must not require students to present any documentation from a physician or licensed health care professional to use sunscreen or sun-protective clothing.

The bill aims to promote student health by facilitating easier access to sun protection measures without the burden of additional medical paperwork. It is set to take effect in the first full school year following its enactment, ensuring that schools have adequate time to implement the new policies.
