Local Education Agencies - As introduced, allows an LEA or public charter school to install, maintain, and use, subject to parental approval, a video camera surveillance system in the special education classrooms operated by the LEA or public charter school to continuously monitor students, teachers, and staff in the classroom while special education or related services are being provided. - Amends TCA Title 10 and Title 49.

Summary

The bill lets local education agencies and public charter schools install continuous video surveillance in special‑education classrooms, but only if written consent is obtained from the parents of a majority of the students in that room. It also sets rules for who may view the footage and requires schools to adopt policies on how long recordings are kept. The aim is to improve safety for students and staff.
