Bill > HB3375

This bill aims to address school discipline in public schools in West Virginia. It requires the Department of Education to analyze statewide data on school disciplinary actions and develop a statewide program to address the number of disciplinary actions taken against students, including data by subgroups like race, gender, and disability. County boards of education must then implement this program with the goal of improving disciplinary outcomes. The bill also mandates the Department of Education to provide annual reports and periodic updates on the statewide school discipline plan to the Legislative Oversight Commission on Education Accountability, and to include school discipline data on the Department's public dashboard.
