SB 334: Pupil instruction: sexual harassment, sexual assault, and sexual abuse prevention: safety.
This bill aims to improve pupil instruction by focusing on safety and preventing sexual harassment, assault, and abuse. It requires public schools to foster a safe environment and emphasize prevention during a designated week in September. Schools must also host interactive activities, post resources, and send written notices to the community. The bill encourages the development of curriculum frameworks that include information on uniform complaint procedures, Title IX, and what pupils should do if they believe they've been subjected to abuse. The bill also requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for mandated costs.
