New School Safety and Security Requirements in House Bill 123 - the Affects and Effects
- Registration Closed
Fees: $55 (Non-Member) / $30 (Member)
This session explains the requirements specified in House Bill 123. The legislation went into effect in March of 2021. It requires the establishment and training of behavioral assessment teams for schools that serve grades 6 through 12. The law also mandates schools to have anonymous tip lines that meet new requirements. The tip lines need to be operational before the start of the 2021-2022 school year. Additionally, the presentation will discuss the regulation that schools must deliver state approved Suicide awareness and prevention training to all staff and students.
This new legislation will impact your school district in terms of training, organization, time management and compiling reports. The presentation will hopefully provide you with a head start in becoming compliant.
