High school curriculum; require SBE to develop for instruction in civics and home economics.
HB 410 would have required Mississippi's State Board of Education to create two new high school curricula: a civics course teaching U.S. citizenship responsibilities (to be implemented by 2027-2028) and a home economics course covering parenting, family skills, child development, nutrition, and health (to begin in 2026-2027). The bill directly affected all Mississippi public high schools and their students by mandating these specific subjects be added to existing curricula. It died in committee on February 3, 2026, meaning it did not become law and these requirements were never implemented. The proposed changes focused on concrete curriculum development, not broader policy shifts.
