The bill, introduced by Representatives Pae and Seifried, seeks to amend Oklahoma law concerning bullying, suicide, and electronic communications. It redefines aiding suicide to include assisting any person in taking their own life and updates prohibitions against obscene, threatening, or harassing electronic communications to emphasize the intent to terrify, intimidate, threaten, or harass individuals. Additionally, the Oklahoma Computer Crimes Act is expanded to cover electronic devices in its prohibitions. The legislation also enhances the School Safety and Bullying Prevention Act by refining the definition of bullying and requiring school districts to adopt comprehensive policies that include anonymous reporting, parental notification, and training for school personnel. It provides immunity for good faith reporters of bullying and prohibits retaliation against employees who report noncompliance.

Moreover, the bill introduces new requirements for school districts regarding student discipline and safety policies, mandating public hearings before policy adoption and ensuring notification to students and parents through various communication methods. It requires districts to submit approved policies to the State Department of Education within thirty days and emphasizes the ongoing implementation of these policies. The bill clarifies teachers' rights in student discipline, aligning their authority with that of parents, and limits the State Board of Education's control over disciplinary policies. It also allows for the adoption of dress codes as a disciplinary measure and establishes monitoring and reporting requirements for bullying incidents in public schools. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
