Bill > SR60

This resolution urges the New Jersey Department of Education to regularly review and update the "School Safety and Security Manual: Best Practices Guidelines" and calls on the New Jersey Attorney General to similarly review and revise "Law Enforcement Directive No. 2007-1" and its accompanying model policies. These documents, which were last significantly updated in 2007, provide critical guidance for school personnel and law enforcement regarding school safety and security measures. The resolution acknowledges the importance of maintaining current best practices in areas such as building access control, emergency planning, crisis response, active shooter protocols, and communication procedures. By recommending periodic reviews, the resolution aims to ensure that schools and law enforcement agencies have the most up-to-date information to prevent, mitigate, and respond effectively to potential safety emergencies. The resolution also directs that copies be transmitted to federal education and justice departments, as well as the President of the United States, to underscore the significance of ongoing school safety improvements.
