AN ACT REQUIRING TRAINING FOR A MASS SHOOTING EVENT.
SB 579 requires school security officers and school resource officers to complete specific training for responding to mass shooting events. The bill mandates this training be integrated into existing protocols for these personnel through amendments to state statutes. It directly affects school safety staff in public schools by establishing a new training requirement focused on mass shooting response procedures. The legislation does not change funding, equipment, or other school safety measures, only the training standard for designated personnel.
