AN ACT to create and enact a new section to chapter 15.1-19 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to protection of a student victim of a sexual offense.

Changed the term 'sexual assault' to 'sexual offense' and expanded the definition to include offenses under multiple specific sections of chapter 12.1-20, not just nonconsensual offenses.

Added detailed requirements for safety plans including victim input consideration, no contact orders, expulsion hearing procedures, alternative education options, and scheduled reviews to assess necessary adjustments.

Added specific factors schools must consider when determining separation duration, including victim well-being, student age, offense severity, compliance with intervention programs, and input from multiple stakeholders.

Added requirement that juvenile courts or state's attorneys must provide school districts with copies of disposition orders or judgments, and upon victim consent, the victim's name.

Changed terminology from 'convicted student' to 'responsible student' to include both adjudicated juveniles and convicted adults, and renamed the act title from 'sexual assault' to 'sexual offense'.
