AN ACT relative to the youth risk behavior survey in schools.
Be it Enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened:
1 School Districts; Youth Risk Behavior Survey. Amend RSA 186:11, IX-d to read as follows:
IX-d. Require School Districts to Adopt a Policy Governing the Administration of Non-academic Surveys or Questionnaires to Students. The policy shall require school districts to notify a parent or legal guardian of a non-academic survey or questionnaire and its purpose. The policy shall provide that no student shall be required to volunteer for or submit to a non-academic survey or questionnaire, as defined in this paragraph, without written consent of a parent or legal guardian unless the student is an adult or an emancipated minor. In addition to the written notice, the school district may provide notice electronically to a student’s parent or legal guardian. The policy shall include an exception from the consent requirement for the youth risk behavior survey [developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention]. The policy shall also allow a parent or legal guardian to opt-out of the youth risk behavior survey [developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention] either in writing or electronically. The school district shall make such surveys or questionnaires available, at the school and on the school or school district's website, for review by a student's parent or legal guardian, and provide written and electronic notification to addresses as known by the district at the time of notification at least [10] 14 days prior to distribution to students. In this paragraph, "non-academic survey or questionnaire" means surveys, questionnaires, or other documents designed to elicit information about a student's social behavior, family life, religion, politics, race, sexual orientation, sexual activity, drug use, or any other information not related to a student's academics.
2 Effective Date. This act shall take effect upon its passage.
