| IN RE: | SB1219 by Averitt (relating to a parenting and paternity awareness component of the health curriculum used in public high schools), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted |
No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
State Board of Education (SBOE) rule currently requires school districts to include the parenting and paternity awareness program developed by the SBOE and the Office of the Attorney General in the curriculum for any full-year high school course that qualifies for health education credit. School districts would have additional discretion to allow a teacher to modify the suggested sequence and pace of the program.
