HB 3264 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the inclusion of firearm safety instruction in the required health curriculum for public school students.

HB 3264 requires Texas public schools to include firearm safety instruction in the mandatory health curriculum for students. The bill mandates that this instruction must focus on accident prevention, student safety and protection, and appropriate responses when encountering a firearm. These requirements apply to all public school health classes starting with the 2025-2026 school year. The legislation specifies concrete content areas rather than prescribing specific teaching methods or materials. This change directly affects public school students and curriculum developers across Texas.
