RE-ESTABLISHING THE STUDENT BEHAVIOR AND SCHOOL CLIMATE TASK FORCE.

SCR 14 re-establishes Delaware's Student Behavior and School Climate Task Force, which previously studied school discipline and climate issues. The task force will examine six specific areas, including the causes of student behavior issues, impacts on learning and educators, current discipline policies, and data-driven solutions. It will develop recommendations for improving school climate and submit a final report by March 1, 2026. This resolution directly affects Delaware schools, students, educators, and families by directing a formal review of school discipline practices. The task force’s work aims to inform future policy changes based on evidence, not immediate legislative action.
