S.B. No. 1325 is a legislative bill that amends the Education Code by adding a new section, 38.2115, which allows public and private schools, including open-enrollment charter schools, to contract with vendors for the provision of medication and training related to respiratory distress. Specifically, the bill enables school boards and governing bodies to procure both medication and related equipment, as well as training for school personnel and volunteers who are authorized to administer this medication.
The bill aims to enhance the preparedness of schools in managing respiratory distress situations by ensuring that appropriate medication and training are readily available. It is set to take effect immediately upon receiving a two-thirds majority vote from both houses of the legislature; otherwise, it will become effective on September 1, 2025.
