SB68

Senate Bill 68 amends existing Arkansas law regarding Holocaust education by establishing a specific 'Holocaust Education Week' in the state's public schools. This week is designated as the last full week of classes in January each year. The bill requires the State Board of Education to notify public schools of these dates prior to the start of each school year. Additionally, it directs the state board to encourage all public schools to provide Holocaust education instruction during this designated week. The legislation aims to ensure students are educated on the significance and history of the Holocaust.
