Bill Summary

Amending the act of March 10, 1949 (P.L.30, No.14), entitled "An act relating to the public school system, including certain provisions applicable as well to private and parochial schools; amending, revising, consolidating and changing the laws relating thereto," in school security, further providing for school security personnel.

AI Summary

This bill amends the Public School Code of 1949 to strengthen school security personnel requirements. Specifically, the bill mandates that beginning with the 2024-2025 school year, each school entity must have at least one full-time school security personnel who has completed specific training on duty during the school day, unless the school entity receives a waiver. Furthermore, starting in the 2026-2027 school year, the requirement expands to mandate at least one trained full-time security personnel in each school building during the school day. The training referenced involves completing certification under sections 1305-C, 1313-C(a.1), or 1314-C of the school code, which likely outline specific security personnel training standards. This bill aims to enhance school safety by ensuring that trained security personnel are consistently present in schools. The legislation will take effect 60 days after its enactment, giving school districts time to prepare and implement the new requirements.
