Sample Parental Permission Form for the Parenting and Paternity Awareness (p.a.p.a.) Program
The 81^st Legislative session passed House Bill (HB) 3076 relating to new requirements for the parenting and paternity awareness (p.a.p.a) program implemented by the Office of the Attorney General (OAG).  One new requirement is for students under the age of 14 to have parental permission before participating in the p.a.p.a curriculum lessons.
The OAG has developed a sample parental permission form for school districts to reference if needed. CLICK HERE for a sample of the form.
