AI Summary

This bill allows Local Education Agencies (LEAs), which are public school districts, and public charter schools in Tennessee to offer students in grades five through twelve (5-12) a hunter education course. This course can be integrated into existing physical education, health, or safety instruction. Importantly, any hunter education course offered under this provision must be officially approved by the wildlife resources agency, ensuring it meets established standards for hunter safety and education. This change aims to provide more opportunities for students to learn about responsible hunting practices.
