S400 - School Access for Boy Scouts/Girl Scouts (SL 2015-249)

Overview: S.L. 2015-249 directs local boards of education to give priority access in the use of school facilities outside of instructional time to youth groups identified under federal law as a patriotic society, such as the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, and requires reasons for denial of priority access to be given in writing. Charter schools and regional schools are also encouraged to facilitate access for those identified youth groups.

This act became effective September 25, 2015.
