AI Summary
This bill amends Michigan's school code to require that by the 2026-2027 school year, health education curriculum standards must include specific content about human development and fetal biology. The bill mandates that health education must provide students with: (1) an overview of human biology related to pregnancy, (2) an overview of human development inside the uterus, (3) a high-definition ultrasound video at least 3 minutes long demonstrating the development of key organs such as the brain, heart, and sex organs during early fetal stages, and (4) a computer-generated visual presentation showing the entire process of fertilization and human development inside the uterus, tracking significant markers of cell growth and organ development from conception through birth. The bill specifically references the "Meet Baby Olivia" video by Live Action as a comparable example of the type of visual presentation required. This legislation aims to enhance students' understanding of human reproductive biology and fetal development by introducing detailed, scientifically-based visual content into health education curriculum.
