SB 1700 Missouri Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Requires school districts and charter schools to install master key boxes at public schools and charter schools on or before July 1, 2028

SB 1700 requires all public school districts and charter schools in the state to install master key boxes at every school campus by July 1, 2028. These boxes would provide emergency responders with immediate access to locked areas during crises, such as active threats or medical emergencies. The bill directly affects school administrators and facility managers, who must coordinate the installation and maintenance of these security devices. It establishes a clear deadline for compliance without specifying additional funding or enforcement mechanisms.
