Committee consolidates school‑medication statutes into a single code section
Senate Bill 104 organizes multiple statutory provisions about medication administration in K–12 schools into a single code section to improve clarity and consistency. Sponsor said the bill gathers requirements and expectations so school staff can find a single reference point for rules, recordkeeping, and responsibilities. The draft preserves epinephrine as the single required medication while keeping other medication administration discretionary in local practice.

No public opposition appeared at the hearing and the committee unanimously recommended the bill to the full Senate.

What’s next: Bill will go to the full Senate; implementers should monitor USBE guidance to align school policy with consolidated code.
