called for local school boards to establish curriculum transparency policies but was optional.
Teuscher said many lawmakers have been approached by constituents "with concerns about what may or may not be taught in classrooms."

"It kind of feels like the difference between what the materials are versus how they're delivered," said Rep. Karen Peterson, R-Clinton. Parents simply just don't know what's happening in the classroom and so when they hear a story here or there, and maybe it gets exaggerated, they tend to believe that.Others said many teachers already send out information at the start of the school term, welcome discussions with parents at parent-teacher conferences or by appointment or place the information on Canvas, a web-based learning management system used in some K-12 schools.
