A bill approved by the state senate earlier this week allows school districts to save thousands of dollars in mailing costs.
Senate Bill 1077 eliminates the requirement that schools mail a letter to parents when audio or visual recordings are used to identify discipline problems on buses.
This state mandate was included with Act 9 of 2014 which gave districts the ability to use the audio recordings.
Instead of the mailings, schools must now post the policy in the student handbook as well as on the school’s website.
The bill will next move to the state house for consideration.
