Relating to academic content standards for social studies.

HB 3919 requires Oregon public schools to teach Holocaust and genocide studies using updated standards that explicitly include ongoing acts of genocide and mass violence, not just historical events. It directs school districts to implement this curriculum by the 2026-2027 school year, with specific learning objectives covering topics like analyzing roles in genocide (perpetrator, bystander), understanding the origins of the term "genocide," and exploring restorative justice mechanisms. The bill also mandates professional development for teachers to support implementation and requires the State Board of Education to develop these standards in consultation with Holocaust education organizations. This affects all Oregon public school districts and their social studies curriculum for students.
