Senate Bill 234 mandates that all school boards, operators of independent charter schools, and governing bodies of private schools participating in parental choice programs or the Special Needs Scholarship Program must display a sign in a prominent public area of each school building. This sign must include the telephone number for the local county or state agency responsible for receiving reports of child abuse and neglect, as well as conducting related investigations.

The bill introduces a new section, 118.07 (6), to the statutes, which outlines these requirements. It aims to ensure that information regarding child abuse and neglect reporting is readily accessible within school environments, thereby promoting awareness and facilitating timely reporting of such incidents.
