Bill Summary

Relative to public schools' emergency alert systems. Education.

AI Summary

This bill amends the existing law in Massachusetts to require public schools to have at least one "silent panic alarm" that can be manually activated in a life-threatening or emergency situation. The alarm must be directly linked to local law enforcement and immediately notify them upon activation, without being audible within the school. The bill also includes a provision to protect public employers from liability for any injury or loss arising from the implementation of this emergency alert system.
