Summary

A bill for an act relating to mandatory reporting to the board of educational examiners of licensed school employees who engage in grooming behavior toward students.(See HF 167.)

Curator notes

Defines grooming by educators as "the process of building trust and emotional connections with a student with the intent to exploit such student"; while it enumerates sexual and physical relationships as examples it also has the vaguer "other inappropriate behavior" example.
