School bus drivers; require to be trained and certified in first aid and CPR.
HB 90 requires all school bus drivers in Mississippi - both public and private - to complete certified first aid and CPR training before operating school transportation vehicles. This applies to drivers transporting students, directly affecting school districts, charter schools (though exempt from broader provisions), and private bus operators serving public school children. The bill amends state law to mandate this certification, with enforcement by the State Board of Education and Mississippi Charter School Authorizer Board. It takes effect July 1, 2025, if enacted.
