HB 1484 proposes the creation of the "Sexual Grooming Protection Act," which seeks to provide parents with the ability to transfer their child to another school—public or private—if the parent determines that the child is subjected to sexual grooming in their current public school. It defines sexual grooming as efforts to desensitize children to sexual experiences or normalize inappropriate sexual relationships. The bill mandates that state education funding should follow the child to the new school chosen by the parent. It also calls for the commissioner to establish rules for implementing the program, ensuring the prevention of fraud and abuse while maintaining the autonomy of participating private schools. The act excludes the use of federal or Available School Funds for such transfers.
