Establishes mediation process for school ethics complaints.

This bill (S 3600) establishes a mandatory mediation process for complaints alleging violations of school ethics rules, directly affecting complainants (e.g., students, parents, staff) and school officials named in complaints. It requires the School Ethics Commission to offer mediation within 90 days of receiving a complaint, with both parties signing a confidentiality pledge before discussions. If mediation leads to dismissal, a written agreement memorializes the resolution; if not, the Commission proceeds with existing procedures to determine if a violation occurred. The bill does not change penalties for violations but adds a step to resolve complaints informally before formal hearings.
