School safety plans enhancement

This bill requires Minnesota public schools to create and adopt evidence-based safety plans focused on preventing human-caused incidents, while also mandating regular drills for lockdowns, fires, and tornadoes. It establishes a role for the School Safety Center to develop model plans, evaluate their effectiveness, and report on which districts have adopted them. The legislation defines "evidence-based" strategies as those supported by strong research or promising data, ensuring schools use proven methods rather than arbitrary measures. Additionally, the bill integrates these safety plans with existing crisis management policies and encourages nonpublic schools to develop similar plans.
