A California Parents Are Authorities Over Child's Educational Curricula Act (09-0047) did not qualify for the November 2, 2010 ballot in California as an initiated constitutional amendment.
On October 1, 2009, Lee W. Olson filed a request with the Office of the California Attorney General for an official ballot title on an act that he is calling the "California Parental Protection Act of 2010."
The attorney general's office has provided that title, so the measure is cleared for circulation with a circulation deadline of April 23, 2010.

If this measure succeeds, it will add a new Section 18 to Article IX of the California Constitution, which will read:
- (a) This Act shall be mown as the "California Parental Protection Act of
2010.
- (b) Notwithstanding any provision of the Constitution to the contrary, the parents or legal guardian shall have the sole authority and responsibility to establish the educational curriculum of their child or ward and this authority and responsibility shall not be usurped by any local, State, or higher level governmental entity.
