Digest
HB 25 seeks to promote healthy living by establishing health and nutrition standards in schools. It mandates that students enrolled in full-day prekindergarten through eighth grade participate in moderate or vigorous physical activity for at least 30 minutes daily, with exemptions for students with illnesses or disabilities and those involved in extracurricular activities with a physical component. The bill also prevents school employees from restricting a student's participation in recess or physical education as a disciplinary measure. Additionally, it introduces a required nutrition curriculum as part of the school system's health education program​.
