This bill amends the current public school health curriculum by adding a new requirement for age-appropriate and medically accurate sexuality education. Specifically, it mandates that public school students view a high-quality computer-generated animation or ultrasound video that demonstrates the development of the heart, brain, and other vital organs during early fetal development. The new legal language is inserted into RSA 189:10, creating a new paragraph (II-a) that outlines these requirements.

The bill is set to take effect on September 1, 2025, and is expected to impact local school districts in terms of expenditures, although the exact costs are indeterminable and will vary by district. The fiscal note indicates that there will be no immediate revenue impact, but local expenditures may arise as schools implement the new curriculum requirements.
