## Summary

**Stronger parental control over student data** is the bill’s central goal. This bill would create a federal framework that tightens student data privacy, expands parental notification and consent, and promotes responsible AI-driven personalized learning. - Families and students: Parents and eligible students would get real-time consent requests through defined "instant verification" systems and accessible opt-outs. Schools would have to offer a legible opt-out form that can be completed in five minutes and keep opt-out access year-round. - Schools and States: Local agencies could earn a Golden Seal of Excellence by meeting privacy standards such as one year of instant verification, clear disclosures of data practices, and no recent FERPA violations; States would run applications and publish recipient lists. - EdTech providers and researchers: Third-party contracts would face new transparency and certification rules, public posting of potential covered contracts, and a public registry of noncompliant vendors. A Privacy Technical Assistance Center would approve voluntary safe-harbor programs and SBIR grants would prioritize educational AI that preserves critical thinking and improves personalized learning.
