CA SB1258

Requires each local educational agency (school district, county office of education, or charter school) to develop and implement a comprehensive food allergy protection policy by the 2017-18 school year.

Policy must include protocols addressing medication storage, school parties, lunch seating, food service, after-school events, field trips, bullying, recess, and teacher/employee training.

Local educational agencies must develop the policy in coordination with a school nurse or health personnel, a parent of a student with food allergies, an ad hoc parent, and a director of food services.

Establishes that if the Commission on State Mandates determines the bill imposes state-mandated costs, reimbursement shall be made pursuant to existing statutory procedures under Government Code Section 17500 et seq.
