Tennessee SB0905 amends school safety and mental health laws, requiring LEAs to employ school counselors and establish a grant program for school.
Tennessee SB0905 amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 49, to enhance school safety and mental health provisions. It mandates that each local educational agency (LEA) and public charter school must employ at least one full-time licensed professional school counselor for each school. Additionally, it establishes a school safety infrastructure grant program administered by the Tennessee school safety center. LEAs must apply for grants by detailing how funds will improve school safety infrastructure, align with security assessments, and support LEA-authorized charter schools.
