A bill for an act relating to the responsibilities of school districts and charter schools related to the discipline of students who cause violent or nonviolent disruptions.

Summary

Those policies must include behavior‑correction strategies, parental consent for counseling, alignment with federal disability and privacy statutes, and a graduated discipline process that can include removal, suspension, expulsion, or placement in an alternative learning setting. It seeks to create consistent, due‑process‑focused procedures for handling threats, violence, and disruptions while providing support services for affected students.
