The proposed bill, known as the Holocaust Education Act, mandates the development of age-appropriate curriculum and materials by the state board of education to educate students in grades six through twelve about the Holocaust. The instruction aims to provide essential knowledge and skills within the social studies curriculum, fostering a sense of responsibility among students to recognize and uphold human values while preventing future atrocities. Each school district is required to implement this instruction, which may utilize the resources developed by the state board and must include historical context, participation in learning projects, and materials from recognized institutions such as the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.

Additionally, the bill defines the term "Holocaust" to encompass the systematic persecution and annihilation of European Jewry by Nazi Germany and its collaborators from 1933 to 1945, while also acknowledging the targeting of other marginalized groups during this period. The act will take effect upon its publication in the statute book, ensuring that Holocaust education becomes a formal part of the educational framework in Kansas.
