The bill aims to enhance student safety by allowing school districts in Kansas to implement standardized firearm safety education programs. It mandates that the state board of education establish curriculum guidelines for these programs, which must include specific training for different grade levels. For students in kindergarten through fifth grade, the program will utilize the Eddie Eagle GunSafe program from the National Rifle Association or a successor program. For grades six through eight, the options include either the Eddie Eagle program or the Hunter Education in Our Schools program from the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks. For high school students in grades nine through twelve, the Hunter Education program is required.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that if a school board chooses to offer firearm safety education, it must adhere to the established guidelines and ensure that all students have the opportunity to participate in the course. This legislation is designed to promote awareness and safety regarding firearms among students in Kansas. The act will take effect upon its publication in the statute book.
