This bill amends Section 6-104 of Title 70 of the Oklahoma Statutes, which pertains to sick leave for teachers and support personnel in school districts. It mandates that school districts provide a minimum of three days of paid bereavement leave for teachers and support personnel following the death of their spouse or child, including cases of miscarriage. This bereavement leave is specified to be in addition to any sick leave related to miscarriage and recovery, ensuring that it does not negate any locally negotiated leave policies that may offer greater benefits.

Additionally, the bill updates various statutory language and clarifies existing provisions regarding sick leave, personal business leave, and emergency leave for both teachers and support personnel. It emphasizes that the terms for personal business leave and sick leave must not undermine any locally negotiated agreements that provide more generous benefits. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2026, and includes an emergency clause for immediate implementation upon passage and approval.
