What it would have done

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

This bill requires the state superintendent of public instruction, in consultation with organizations representing law enforcement, to promulgate rules to develop a model curriculum for pupils in grades 5 to 12 to instruct pupils on how to interact with law enforcement with mutual cooperation and respect.

The bill allows a school board or operator of an independent charter school to include in each grade from 5 to 12 instruction in law enforcement interactions that is consistent with the model curriculum. The bill specifies that a school board that elects not to include such instruction must adopt a resolution making that election.
