    Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
 
represented in the General Assembly:


 
    Section 5. The Critical Health Problems and Comprehensive 
Health
Education Act is amended  by changing Section 3 as 
follows:
 



    (105 ILCS 110/3)  (from Ch. 122, par. 863)


    Sec. 3. Comprehensive Health Education Program. The 
program established
under this Act shall include, but not be 
limited to, the following major
educational areas as a basis 
for curricula in all elementary and secondary
schools in this 
State: human ecology and health, human growth and
development, 
the emotional, psychological, physiological, hygienic and

social responsibilities of family life, including sexual 
abstinence until
marriage, prevention and control of disease, 
including instruction in
grades 6 through 12 on the prevention, 
transmission and spread of AIDS,
sexual assault awareness in 
secondary schools, public and environmental health, consumer 
health, safety education and
disaster survival, mental health 
and illness, personal health habits,
alcohol, drug use, and 
abuse including the medical and legal ramifications
of alcohol, 
drug, and tobacco use, abuse during pregnancy, sexual

abstinence until marriage, tobacco, nutrition, and dental 
health. The program shall also provide course material and 
instruction to advise pupils of the Abandoned Newborn Infant 
Protection Act.
Notwithstanding the above educational areas, 
the following areas may also
be included as a basis for 
curricula in all elementary and secondary
schools in this 
State: basic first aid (including, but not limited to,

cardiopulmonary resuscitation and the Heimlich maneuver), 
early prevention
and detection of cancer, heart disease, 
diabetes, stroke, and the
prevention of child abuse, neglect, 
and suicide.
The school board of each
public elementary and 
secondary school in the State
shall encourage all teachers and 
other school personnel to acquire,
develop, and maintain the 
knowledge and skills necessary to properly
administer 
life-saving techniques, including without limitation the

Heimlich maneuver and rescue breathing.
The training shall be 
in
accordance with standards of the
American Red Cross, the 
American Heart Association, or another nationally
recognized 
certifying organization.
 A school board may use the
services of 
non-governmental entities whose personnel have expertise in

life-saving techniques to instruct teachers and other school 
personnel in
these techniques.  Each school board
is encouraged 
to have in
its employ, or on its volunteer staff, at least one 
person who is certified, by
the American Red Cross or by 
another qualified certifying agency,
as qualified to 
administer first aid and
cardiopulmonary resuscitation.  In 
addition, each school board is authorized to
allocate 
appropriate portions of its institute or inservice days to 
conduct
training programs for teachers and other school 
personnel who have expressed an
interest in becoming qualified 
to administer emergency first aid or
cardiopulmonary 
resuscitation.  School boards are urged to
encourage their 
teachers and other school personnel who coach school athletic

programs and other extracurricular school activities to 
acquire, develop, and
maintain the knowledge and skills 
necessary to properly administer first aid
and cardiopulmonary 
resuscitation in accordance with standards and requirements

established by the American Red Cross or another qualified 
certifying agency.
No pupil shall be
required to take or 
participate in any class or course on AIDS or family
life 
instruction if his parent or guardian submits written objection

thereto, and refusal to take or participate in the course or 
program shall
not be reason for suspension or expulsion of the 
pupil.

    Curricula developed under programs established in 
accordance with this
Act in the major educational area of 
alcohol and drug use and abuse shall
include classroom 
instruction in grades 5 through 12. The instruction,
which 
shall include matters relating to both the physical and legal 
effects
and ramifications of drug and substance abuse, shall be 
integrated into
existing curricula; and the State Board of 
Education shall develop and make
available to all elementary 
and secondary schools in this State
instructional materials and 
guidelines which will assist the schools in
incorporating the 
instruction into their existing curricula.  In
addition, school 
districts may offer, as part of existing curricula during
the 
school day or as part of an after school program, support 
services and
instruction for pupils or pupils whose parent, 
parents, or guardians are
chemically dependent.
