AB 2298: Pupil instruction: computer science: content standards.
The bill aims to improve computer science education in California by revising the content standards and instructional materials.

The commission will also evaluate instructional materials for the inclusion of cybersecurity skills when they are adopted by the state board after January 1, 2027. This will enhance the state's academic content standards and ensure that students receive a comprehensive education in computer science, including cybersecurity skills.
