HB 2150 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2025 Regular Session

Relating to human growth and development curriculum

HB 2150 requires all West Virginia public and private schools to add a new "Baby Olivia Act" human growth and development curriculum focused on pregnancy and fetal development ("human development inside the womb") to health education courses for grades 6-12. The bill mandates specific teaching methods for this content and authorizes the Attorney General to sue schools that violate the new curriculum requirements. It directly affects all West Virginia schools offering health education, requiring them to adopt this specific curriculum by amending existing health education standards. The bill does not change other health education topics like STD prevention or substance abuse, which remain part of the curriculum.
