Establishes a school safety program to fund cell phone bans and place officers and counselors in schools.

The bill establishes a school safety program within the Arizona Department of Education to support safe learning environments. It allows school districts and charter schools to apply for up to three years of funding to implement cell phone bans in classrooms and to place school resource officers, juvenile probation officers, school counselors, and school social workers on campuses. The department reviews and approves program proposals based on school safety needs, and unspent funds revert to the department for the next fiscal year.
