Permits school districts to employ safe schools resource officers or Class Three special law enforcement officers for security purposes, and requires school districts to have agreement with local law enforcement governing placement of school security personnel.

This bill allows New Jersey public school districts to hire safe schools resource officers or Class Three special law enforcement officers for security during school hours. The state will fund these positions for districts that choose to implement them after the bill takes effect. School districts must also create written agreements with local law enforcement (or the State Police if no local department exists) covering roles, training, firearm authority, and other operational details. The law directly affects school districts, security personnel, and local law enforcement agencies in New Jersey.
