The "School Safety and Security Act"; establishes penalties for certain criminal acts committed on school property.

This bill, S 2516 ("School Safety and Security Act"), establishes new penalties for specific actions threatening school safety. It makes it a fourth-degree crime to intentionally enter school property after being prohibited, provide false identification, bypass security measures, tamper with security devices, or falsely trigger emergency protocols (like lockdowns) to cause alarm. It also prohibits filming or sharing school security plans, drills, or routes without written permission from school or law enforcement officials. The law directly affects visitors, students, and staff who might violate these rules, and applies to all public and non-public school districts in New Jersey.
