Enacts the "youth & teen internet safety and social media literacy act"; directs the commissioner of education to provide technical assistance to school districts for the development of curricula for such study of courses which shall be age appropriate and developed according to the needs and abilities of pupils at successive grade levels in order to provide awareness, skills, information, and support to aid in the safe usage of the internet, social media, and artificial intelligence.

The bill, known as the 'Youth & Teen Internet Safety and Social Media Literacy Act', aims to help schools create educational programs that teach students how to use the internet, social media, and artificial intelligence safely. It requires the state education commissioner to assist schools in developing age-appropriate curricula that meet the needs of students at different grade levels. The goal is to equip young people with the knowledge and skills to navigate online spaces responsibly.

Supporters of the bill argue that it is essential for protecting young people in an increasingly digital world. They believe that by providing structured education on internet safety and social media literacy, students will become more informed and responsible digital citizens. This proactive approach is seen as a necessary step to prevent online dangers and promote healthy online interactions.

Critics of the bill may contend that it imposes additional regulations on schools and could lead to government overreach in education. They might argue that teaching internet safety should be a parental responsibility rather than a state-mandated curriculum. Some may also express concerns about the effectiveness of such programs in truly addressing the complexities of online behavior and technology use.
