Bill Summary

Relative to appropriate discipline management techniques consistent with the student code of conduct. Education.

AI Summary

This bill aims to establish new disciplinary measures for disruptive student behavior in public schools. It allows teachers to remove disruptive students from the classroom and place them in in-school suspension or alternative education programs. The bill also requires schools to form committees to determine appropriate placement for removed students and mandates that districts provide alternative education programs that focus on core academic subjects and have a "zero tolerance for school violence." The bill provides guidance on the structure and funding of these alternative programs, and requires districts to cooperate with other agencies to support students placed in them.
