The following information is revised to reflect amendments
adopted by the committee on August 11, 2016
Bill
Summary: This bill requires school districts and charter
schools to offer instruction in compression-only cardiopulmonary
resuscitation (CPR) to the extent the governing board of a
school district or the governing body of a charter school
requires a course in health education for graduation from high
school.
Fiscal
Impact:

in the low millions for school districts and charter schools
to implement CPR instruction. This assumes all schools
serving grades 9 through 12 require a health course for high
school graduation. Costs will depend on how schools choose to
implement this instruction. Some school districts or charter
schools may be able to secure private funding or equipment or
materials which would mitigate costs. (Proposition 98)
The California Department of Education estimates one-time
costs of $32,000 General Fund related to a partial position to
provide the required guidance on the implementation of CPR
instruction.
Committee
Amendments: Remove the mandate.
