Hello Stacey,
Check out the Spirit of America curriculum, the premier youth boating education program in the country:
Welcome to Spirit of America Premier Youth Boating EducationIt started and is headquartered in Northeast Ohio, but is in multiple locations in several states. I served as the North Carolina program coordinator for several years.
Cecilia Duer is the Executive Director and would be a wonderful resource for youth boating education curriculum. Their curriculum meets the National On Water Standards (NOWS).
Hope this is helpful!

Subject: K-12 Boating, Life Jacket, or Water Safety Curriculum
Hello all!
I am working on an Education Standards Panel workgroup and we are hoping to review existing K-12 curriculum around boating, life jackets, or water safety. If your state has created or uses such a curriculum or if you know of another entity who has created such a curriculum, can you reach out to me to either share the curriculum or the organization who has created a curriculum?
Thank you so much!
Stacey
