Enact the Food Literacy Standards Act

Summary

The bill directs Ohio’s Department of Education and Workforce to develop statewide food‑literacy standards for kindergarten through 12th grade and to make them publicly available. Schools must post the standards online and may use them in their curricula, while parents can request that a child be excused from the instruction. The measure aims to give students consistent guidance on how food choices affect health, meal preparation, and food production.
