Public elementary and secondary schools; automated external defibrillators required. Requires each local school board to develop a plan for the placement, care, and use of an automated external defibrillator in every public elementary and secondary school in the local school division and to place an automated external defibrillator in every public elementary and secondary school in the local school division. Under current law, such a plan is optional and there is no requirement for each school board to place an automated external defibrillator in every public elementary and secondary school in the local school division. Finally, the bill requires the Department of Education to compile and make publicly available on its website by August 1, 2024 a list of available public and private programs, grants, or funding sources for fulfilling the requirements of the act.
