Bill > SB0167

This bill modifies provisions related to student reintegration and enrollment, particularly for students with disciplinary issues. It expands the reasons a school district can deny enrollment to include "school safety incidents or safe-school violations," and requires that student records transferred between schools include discipline files, safe-school violations, reintegration plans, and threat assessments, with schools now having only five school days to forward these records. The bill also clarifies the process for developing a "reintegration plan" for students arrested for or adjudicated of serious offenses, involving a multidisciplinary team (which now explicitly includes designees from various agencies and potentially a school resource officer) and requiring the plan to be developed within seven school days of notification while school is in session, or within seven days of school resuming if notified during a break. Furthermore, it allows schools to deny admission until this reintegration plan is completed, and the plan itself will remain in effect for an entire school year or 180 days. The bill also updates requirements for maintaining and transferring student disciplinary and reintegration records, ensuring they follow the student if they transfer schools.
