This bill aims to significantly enhance military recruiter access to secondary schools by amending existing law, mandating that local educational agencies grant military recruiters the same level of campus access for recruiting students aged 17 and older as provided to other recruiters or employers. It further requires schools to facilitate a minimum of four in-person recruitment events per academic year for military recruiters, spread across different grading periods, upon request. A critical provision of the bill compels schools to provide military recruiters with specific student data, including names, academic grades, addresses, email addresses, and telephone numbers. This information must be supplied promptly, either within 60 days of the academic year's commencement or 30 days of a recruiter's request. This measure explicitly overrides certain privacy protections under the General Education Provisions Act (FERPA) to ensure recruiters have necessary contact details for eligible students.
