Georgia public elementary and secondary schools must display the Bill of Rights in three locations by January 1, 2027: the main entrance of the main building, the library/media center entrance, and the cafeteria entrance

Displays must be durable posters or framed copies measuring at least 18 inches wide by 24 inches tall, with a centered "The Bill of Rights" heading and legible text of the First through Tenth Amendments

Schools are not required to spend public funds on the displays but must accept donated funds or privately donated posters/framed copies that meet specifications

The State Board of Education must adopt implementing rules and regulations, and the Department of Education must publish free compliant resources on its website

The bill also makes a technical change spelling out "Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments" in existing law regarding historical document displays
