Relating to human growth and development curriculum
HB 4100 requires all West Virginia public, private, parochial, and denominational schools to include specific instruction on human growth and development related to pregnancy and fetal development in health education courses for grades 6-12. The bill establishes a new curriculum called the "Baby Olivia Act" and specifies guidelines for presenting this content. It authorizes the West Virginia Attorney General to sue for violations and impose civil penalties. The bill directly affects school curricula statewide and amends existing education code sections governing required courses.
