Arizona SB1182 allows schools to include instruction on underrepresented communities in social studies or civics courses.

Arizona SB1182 amends the state's education statutes to permit school districts and charter schools to integrate historically accurate instruction on the history, contributions, and civic participation of historically underrepresented communities into their social studies or civics curricula. Specifically, these communities include Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander groups. This addition aims to provide a more comprehensive and inclusive educational experience for students.
