Bill > HB1472

This bill mandates that all school districts and charter schools in Missouri implement mobile panic-alert technology to enhance school safety. Specifically, the legislation requires that each classroom be equipped with panic-alert technology that allows school employees to immediately contact and communicate two-way with local emergency services, including law enforcement, fire departments, and school administration. Additionally, the bill extends this requirement to provide similar mobile panic-alert technology for all school employees throughout school facilities. The legislation also stipulates that before the start of each school year, all school employees must receive comprehensive training on how to properly use and follow protocols for the panic-alert technology. The goal of this bill is to provide a rapid and direct communication method for school staff to quickly summon help in emergency situations, potentially improving response times and overall school safety.
