Schools and districts must adopt a policy that reasonably accommodates a student’s sincerely
held religious beliefs and practices for reasons of faith or religious or spiritual belief system.
Students are given up to three religious expression days per school year provided that the
parent or guardian provides written notice to the school or district of the selected days within
14 school days of the start of school (or within 14 days of a newly enrolled student’s first day
in the school or district). The policy must allow students to participate in interscholastic
athletics or other extracurricular activities on a religious expression day.

Schools and districts must post and communicate the policy to families and students. Each
school or district must collaborate with the student and family on accommodations needed
when there is a conflict between a religious expression day and a school assessment or
academic requirement. No inclusion or exclusion of a religious holiday or festival on this list
shall preclude a student from full and reasonable accommodations for any sincerely held
religious beliefs and practices for reasons of faith or religious or spiritual belief system.
These three religious expression days do not count toward parental notification requirements
under ORC 3321.191 (C)(1) for excessive absences.
