The bill, H.B. No. 3341, amends Section 37.108 of the Education Code to require school districts to provide parents or guardians with a written copy of the district's multihazard emergency operations plan at the beginning of each school year. This plan must include procedures for various emergency situations, such as natural disasters, extreme temperature events, power outages affecting food distribution, active shooter emergencies, and any declared emergencies within the district or state.

The new requirement will take effect starting with the 2025-2026 school year. The bill stipulates that it will become effective immediately if it receives a two-thirds majority vote from both houses of the legislature; otherwise, it will take effect on September 1, 2025.
