Beginning in the 2017-18 school year, this bill requires school boards, operators
of independent charter schools, and governing bodies of private schools to provide
instruction in cardiopulmonary and cardiocerebral resuscitation in any health
education course offered to pupils in grades 7 to 12 and to provide instruction about
automated external defibrillators to pupils in grades 7 to 12. Under current law, a
school board, operator of an independent charter school, and governing body of a
private school are required to offer instruction about cardiopulmonary and
cardiocerebral resuscitation and to provide instruction about automated external
defibrillators to pupils enrolled in high school grades.
