Establishes the healthy and safe students act

Summary

The Healthy and Safe Students Act mandates that every public and charter school in New York provide age‑appropriate, medically accurate sexuality education to all students K‑12. The State Education and Health Commissioners will create a model curriculum and supporting materials that districts must adopt or match with their own curriculum, and districts that reject the model must set up an advisory council. The law aims to give students consistent, inclusive instruction on topics such as anatomy, consent, relationships, and health.
