SB 684 - This act allows a school district to offer an elective social studies unit on the Hebrew Scriptures, the Old Testament of the Bible, or the New Testament of the Bible. The course will include the contents, history, literary style and structure, and influences on society. No requirement shall be made by the district on the text translation students must use. This act requires that any course offered shall follow applicable laws maintaining religious neutrality, and shall not endorse, favor, promote, or show hostility to any particular religion, nonreligious faith, or religious perspective. This act is substantially similar to HB 2292 (2022), identical to SB 323 (2021) and HB 1345 (2020), and similar to HB 267 (2019). JAMIE ANDREWS
