AI Summary

This bill requires students entering grade 9 in the 2017-2018 school year to earn one-half credit in health education, separate from the existing one credit requirement in physical education. The bill also allows students to request to take and successfully complete a health education assessment developed by the Department of Education, in which case they would only need to earn seven and a half credits in electives instead of the standard eight credits.
