Pupil instruction: violence awareness.

Summary
Existing law requires the adopted course of study for grades 1 to 6, inclusive, to include instruction in specified areas of study and requires the adopted course of study for grades 7 to 12, inclusive, to offer courses in specified areas of instruction. This bill would allow all required areas of study specified for those grades, as deemed appropriate by the governing board, to include grade-level appropriate instruction on violence awareness and prevention, including personal testimony in the form of oral or video histories. The bill would specify that it is the intent of the Legislature that the measure be carried out in a manner that does not result in new duties or programs being imposed on a school district.
