Bans using seclusion to confine a student

Summary

The bill requires every school district, charter school, and publicly‑contracted private provider to adopt a written policy that bans seclusion and any mechanical, physical, or prone restraint that could harm a student, unless the student poses an immediate threat of physical harm. It defines permissible exceptions (e.g., time‑outs, in‑school suspension) and mandates training, reporting, and annual review. The measure failed to pass.
