GA96HB288 96 HB 288 STUDENT SILENT REFLECTION Amends the Silent Reflection and Student Prayer Act. Changes the short title of the Act to the Student Silent Reflection Act. Allows a teacher to conduct (instead of requiring a teacher to observe) a brief period of silence at the opening of every school day with the participation of all pupils assembled. Provides that this period shall be an opportunity for such silent reflection as may be desired by each individual pupil (instead of an opportunity for silent prayer or for silent reflection on the anticipated activities of the day). Effective immediately. http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/BillStatus.asp?DocNum=288&GAID=10&DocTypeID=HB&LegId=40444&SessionID=76&GA=96 2009-05-26 00:00:00 Senate Rule 2-10 Third Reading Deadline Established As May 31, 2009 0 27 2009-05-08 00:00:00 Senate Rule 3-9(a) / Re-referred to Assignments 1 26 SCOA 2009-04-29 00:00:00 Senate Held in Education 0 24 SESE 2009-04-22 00:00:00 Senate Assigned to Education 0 23 SESE 2009-04-02 00:00:00 Senate Added as Alternate Chief Co-Sponsor Sen.
