Relates to first aid instruction for students in grades nine through twelve

This bill requires New York high schools to provide first aid instruction to all students in grades nine through twelve. It mandates a state-developed curriculum covering key topics like recognizing shock, wound care, choking, burns, and CPR (with optional certification through approved providers). Schools may integrate this into existing health classes or offer it as an after-school elective, without creating new mandatory courses. The law directly affects public high schools and their 9th-12th grade students by adding standardized first aid training to their educational experience. It takes effect July 1, 2025, following legislative approval.
