Overview
This bill aims to strengthen civics education in Alaska’s high schools. It requires schools to offer instruction on a broad range of topics related to government, citizenship, and civic engagement, including U.S. and Alaska history, political systems, and current issues. Students must demonstrate proficiency in these areas through coursework or assessments to receive a high school diploma, with provisions for students who have received similar instruction elsewhere or have disabilities.
