AI Summary

This bill mandates that all Kentucky students receive instruction on the "Success Sequence," defined as a series of milestones including obtaining a high school diploma and further training, securing full-time employment, and delaying having children until marriage, to promote economic prosperity. This instruction will be provided to all students in grades 7 and 10 starting in the 2027-2028 school year, with provisions for students who enroll later. The Kentucky Board of Education will establish academic standards for this instruction, and the Department of Education will develop guidelines for its implementation, which will include information on positive outcomes and evidence from relevant studies. School superintendents will determine the specific curriculum, and they or the department can partner with Kentucky-based nonprofits to develop it.
