WHEATON – State Representative Amy Grant (R-Wheaton) has filed legislation defending the rights of parents to know what their children are being taught in the classroom. House Bill 3806, known as the Curriculum Transparency Act ensures that families have clear and timely access to what their children are being taught in school.
Under the proposal, public schools and charter schools must publicly disclose lesson plans, learning materials, and teacher training resources within 10 days of their use. It also guarantees parents the right to review copyrighted instructional materials upon request.
“Parents deserve to know what their children are being taught in the classroom,” said Grant. “The Curriculum Transparency Act ensures that parents have easy access to lesson plans, materials, and teacher training – reinforcing the idea that accountability and openness should be the foundation of our education system.”
This legislation is part of the efforts to increase transparency and parental involvement in education.
