Assembly Bill 74 mandates that school boards, private school governing bodies, and charter school operators must notify a pupil's parent or guardian by the end of the day when they receive a credible report of alleged sexual misconduct involving that pupil. The bill specifies that a report is considered received when it is acknowledged by designated school officials, such as principals or superintendents. Additionally, the bill requires school boards to provide annual information to parents and guardians about accessing records related to school employee discipline.

The bill creates a new statute, 118.07 (6), which outlines these notification requirements and emphasizes the importance of timely communication regarding allegations of sexual misconduct. It also reinforces existing laws that classify sexual misconduct by school staff as a Class I felony, ensuring that the definitions of misconduct remain consistent with current legal standards.
