SB 1140: Pupil safety: limiting school access to unauthorized individuals.
This bill aims to improve pupil safety by requiring schools to limit access to unauthorized individuals during construction, maintenance, and repair projects. The schools must develop a comprehensive safety plan that includes procedures for safe ingress and egress of students, parents, and employees. The plan must also outline measures to exclude unauthorized individuals from school property. The bill would impose additional duties on local educational agencies, requiring them to develop and implement these plans. The state would be responsible for reimbursing local agencies and school districts for the costs associated with implementing these plans.
