This bill proposes to amend current statutes by adding a new section, 15-120.05, to title 15, chapter 1, article 1 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. The new law would require that starting in the 2026-2027 school year, every school operated by a school district or charter school must complete an annual attestation confirming that they provide instruction aligned with digital citizenship and media literacy standards as outlined in the educational technology, computer science, English language arts, and social studies standards.

Additionally, the bill mandates that each school district and charter school submit these attestations to the Arizona Department of Education and make them publicly available by posting them on their respective websites. This update aims to enhance accountability and ensure that schools are meeting essential educational standards in digital citizenship and media literacy.
