Authorizes the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education to establish an agricultural education program for elementary schools
H Calendar Senate Bills for Third Reading
Summary
The bill ends the existing pilot and directs the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) to set up a statewide agricultural education program for public elementary schools beginning in the 2027‑28 school year. Local school boards must fully fund the program and may hire an agricultural education teacher, while DESE works with Missouri commodity groups to design curriculum and will evaluate and publish results. The measure also repeals and replaces a section of state law governing standards for agricultural and vocational training.
