Description
School safety; threat assessment teams and oversight committees. Requires local school divisions to establish policies and procedures for the establishment of threat assessment teams in each school, to be overseen by a division-level committee. The bill requires each threat assessment team to (i) provide guidance to students, faculty, and staff regarding recognition of threatening or aberrant behavior that may represent a threat to the community; (ii) identify members of the school community to whom threatening behavior should be reported; and (iii) develop policies and procedures for the assessment of individuals whose behavior may present a threat, appropriate means of intervention with such individuals, and sufficient means of action to resolve potential threats. The bill requires threat assessment teams to report to the division superintendent upon a preliminary determination that an individual poses a threat of violence to self or others; the superintendent is then permitted to obtain that individual's criminal history record information and health information.
