The proposed bill, known as the "Student Retention Protocol Act of 2025," establishes a framework for supporting students who are at risk of being retained in their current grade due to academic performance. It mandates that these students undergo specific screenings, assessments, and evaluations, including hearing and vision screenings, family assessments, and psychiatric evaluations, all conducted by qualified personnel. Additionally, if initial screenings do not indicate a need for treatment, students may receive occupational or physical therapy evaluations. The implementation of these requirements is contingent upon the availability of funding.

The bill also includes definitions for key terms related to the assessments and screenings, such as "at risk of being retained," "family assessment," and various types of evaluations. It is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, and includes an emergency clause to ensure its immediate enforcement upon passage and approval.
