Education: safety; standardized response terminology plan; require that public schools and nonpublic schools adopt and implement. Amends 1976 PA 451 (MCL 380.1 - 380.1852) by adding sec. 1308d. TIE BAR WITH: HB 4096'23

This bill requires public and nonpublic schools in Michigan to adopt and implement a standardized plan for response terminology starting in the 2026-2027 school year. The law mandates that school boards and directors use consistent language when communicating about safety incidents to ensure clarity across the education system. However, the bill does not take effect unless it is passed together with a companion bill, HB 4096.
