Summary
SB 671, Portantino. School safety plans: dangerous, violent, or unlawful activities. Existing law requires school districts and county offices of education to be responsible for the overall development of a comprehensive school safety plan for each of its schools operating kindergarten or any of grades 1 to 12, inclusive. Existing law requires the schoolsite council of a school to write and develop the comprehensive school safety plan relevant to the needs and resources of that particular school, in consultation with a representative from a law enforcement agency, a fire department, and other first responder entities. Existing law requires the plan to include specified components, including procedures for conducting tactical responses to criminal incidents. Existing law requires a petition to establish a charter school to include, among other things, a reasonably comprehensive description of the procedures that the charter school will follow to ensure the health and safety of pupils and staff, including requiring the development and annual update of a school safety plan that includes certain safety topics and procedures.This bill would require a comprehensive school safety plan, and the school safety plan of a charter school, to include procedures to assess and respond to reports of any dangerous, violent, or unlawful activity that is being conducted or threatened to be conducted at the school, at an activity sponsored by the school, or on a schoolbus serving the school. By imposing additional requirements related to comprehensive school safety plans, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program.This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 32282 of the Education Code proposed by SB 10 and SB 323 to be operative only if this bill and either or both of those bills are enacted and this bill is enacted last.This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 47605 of the Education Code proposed by AB 1604 and SB 10 to be operative only if this bill and either or both of those bills are enacted and this bill is enacted last.This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 47605.6 of the Education Code proposed by AB 1604 and SB 10 to be operative only if this bill and either or both of those bills are enacted and this bill is enacted last.The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state.
