Abstract
(HB6164 · 103rd Legislature) Education: curriculum; computer science course requirements; modify. Amends sec. 1166c of 1976 PA 451 (MCL 380.1166c). Latest action (2026-07-14): Bill Electronically Reproduced 07/03/2026
Why this matters
Computer science course requirements shape what Michigan K-12 students must be offered or complete before graduation, affecting district curriculum planning, teacher endorsements, and student pathways into STEM fields. Tracking incremental amendments to MCL 380.1166c helps distinguish substantive changes in mandates from technical cleanup, which matters for how districts budget staffing and course offerings.
