Assembly Bill 613 mandates that school principals notify the parents or guardians of students whenever a pupil is removed from the classroom, provided that this removal diminishes the quality or quantity of instructional time for the remaining students. The notification must be in writing and delivered electronically by 5 p.m. on the day of the removal, unless the parent has opted out of electronic communication, in which case it must be sent via first-class mail. Additionally, this requirement extends to situations where an entire class is removed for safety drills mandated by law.

The bill also establishes new reporting requirements, stipulating that principals must report the number of removals requiring parental notification to their respective school boards annually, and school boards must compile and submit this data to the Department of Public Instruction. The bill includes the creation of definitions for "school principal" and outlines the responsibilities of the principal or their designee in ensuring compliance with these notification and reporting requirements. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2026.
