TO REQUIRE CERTAIN MATERIALS TO BE STORED IN LOCKED COMPARTMENTS WITHIN A DESIGNATED AREA.

House Bill 1646, as amended, mandates that certain unspecified materials be stored in locked compartments within a designated area. This requirement primarily affects individuals employed in public schools who are responsible for these materials. The bill establishes a clear disciplinary process for knowingly failing to comply with these storage rules. A first offense may result in a suspension without pay for up to five days, while a second offense can lead to the suspension of a teaching license. A third instance of non-compliance requires the revocation of the individual's teaching license by the Professional Licensure Standards Board.
