In accordance with the new Texas law, Senate Bill 12, Legacy Preparatory Charter Academy is requesting written consent for your child to participate in clubs and organizations and receive school-based health and counseling services from qualified district personnel. The personnel may include school nurses, counselors, social workers, athletic staff, and other certified health and mental health professionals.

This legislation mandates that parents/guardians are fully informed and give permission for care and support. In a serious emergency, staff will still act to protect your child’s safety and will contact you immediately. Staff may verbally inquire about a student’s daily well-being.

Providing consent allows your child access to timely and reliable services that support their health, safety, wellness, and readiness to learn. Without your consent, staff will be limited in the services they can provide to your child during the school day.
