AI Summary
This bill seeks to establish a skin cancer and sun safety education program in public schools. It proposes to amend the existing law by adding language that directs the Department of Education, in collaboration with the Department of Public Health, to develop a model curriculum for grades kindergarten through twelve that covers the basic facts about skin cancer and comprehensive strategies to reduce the risk of contracting it. The curriculum will be based on the Sunwise Program of the Environmental Protection Agency and made available to all school districts in the Commonwealth, which will be encouraged to implement the curriculum or a variation thereof.
