Bill > SB729

This bill eliminates the requirement for school principals to report to law enforcement certain misdemeanor offenses that occur on school property or during school-sponsored activities. The existing law required principals to report acts such as assault, drug-related incidents, and threats against school personnel. The proposed changes would limit the principal's reporting obligation to only those acts that constitute a felony offense, rather than misdemeanors. The bill also provides additional details on the reporting process and the information that must be shared with parents and the Department of Education.
