The bill mandates that each school district in Alaska implement a program for students from kindergarten through grade 12 that focuses on the history and contributions of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. This program must include instruction on the significant roles these groups have played in the United States, as well as provide instructional materials that reflect their cultural and economic diversity.

To facilitate this initiative, a new section, AS 14.30.430, is added to the existing education law. This section defines the requirements for the educational program and clarifies that "school district" refers to the definition provided in AS 14.30.350. The bill aims to enhance the educational curriculum by ensuring that students receive a comprehensive understanding of the contributions of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders.
