Schools would plan for cardiac emergencies and practice responses

School districts and charter schools would have to make a written plan for cardiac emergencies on school property. The plan must cover a response team, defibrillator placement and upkeep, sharing the plan with emergency medical providers, and yearly drills and review. The plan must follow guidance from a recognized heart-care organization or the commissioner's model plan. The requirement would begin in the 2026–2027 school year.

Schools receiving school meal aid would have to let students buy a second meal after choosing a meal covered by the school program. The rule covers a second lunch at schools receiving lunch aid and a second breakfast at schools receiving breakfast aid. The price of a second meal cannot be higher than the price charged to an adult who is not in the meal program.

School boards could renew some expiring school funding votes by adopting a written resolution after a public meeting and recorded vote. These provisions cover expiring general education and capital project funding votes, including certain votes carried into a newly consolidated school district. For general education votes, the renewed per-pupil amount must stay the same, including any inflation adjustment, and the term cannot exceed the original term except where another cited law allows it. For capital project votes, the annual amount must stay the same and the term cannot exceed the original term, subject to the stated exception. The ballot disclosure rule does not apply to elections held before November 4, 2025. The board must allow public testimony and meet the applicable filing deadlines. A renewal resolution would take effect 60 days after adoption. Capital project renewal resolutions must also meet the stated filing deadlines.
