Relating to an elective course on automobile maintenance for public high school students.

HB 3651 would require Texas public school districts to offer an elective course in automobile maintenance for high school students in grades 9-12. The course must cover practical skills like checking engine oil and coolant, tire pressure and tread, changing tires, battery maintenance, and identifying dashboard warning lights. Students completing the course would earn an elective credit toward graduation. The bill would take effect for the 2025-2026 school year.
