Directs school districts to establish school threat assessment teams to intervene with students exhibiting harmful behavior.
The bill mandates that school districts establish school threat assessment teams to intervene when a student shows signs of intending to harm themselves or others. These teams focus on addressing the underlying issues driving the behavior rather than imposing disciplinary actions, referring students to law enforcement only as a last resort. The teams must implement a comprehensive threat assessment plan, train school personnel, and educate students and parents on mental health issues.
