Summary

The proposal amends state law to ban chemical, mechanical and prone restraints and to require continuous supervision for any seclusion. Physical restraint or seclusion could only be used when a student poses an imminent danger of serious harm and less‑restrictive methods have failed, and only by trained staff. Schools must adopt safety plans, provide regular training, and document each incident.
