AB 1401: Pupil records: parental access.

Existing law provides that parents and guardians of children enrolled in public schools have the right and should have the opportunity, as mutually supportive and respectful partners in the education of their children within the public schools, to be informed by the school, and to participate in the education of their children, as specified, to include, among other things, having access to the school records of their child.

This bill would expressly provide in that latter provision that school records include both official and unofficial school records. The bill also would delete an obsolete reference.
