Relative to decriminalizing non-violent and verbal student misconduct. The Judiciary.
AI Summary
This bill aims to decriminalize non-violent and verbal student misconduct in schools. It amends two sections of the Massachusetts General Laws to exempt K-12 students from being charged, adjudicated, or convicted for disturbing an assembly of people or disorderly conduct, if the alleged violations occurred within school buildings, on school grounds, or during school-related events. The bill seeks to address disciplinary issues in schools through alternative, non-criminal approaches.
