HR 284 Louisiana House · 2024 Regular Session

CURRICULA: Requests that the State Board of Elementary and Secondary Education prioritize policies on instruction relative to CPR and the use of an automated external defibrillator in its rulemaking process

This resolution asks the Louisiana State Board of Elementary and Secondary Education to give high priority to teaching cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and automated external defibrillator (AED) use when creating new school rules. The request comes after a separate bill that would allow the state board to decide these training requirements instead of having them strictly mandated by law. While the resolution does not change laws itself, it urges the education board to ensure these life-saving skills remain a core part of the curriculum for public high school students. It also directs the board to allow input from citizens and advocacy groups during the rule-making process.
