This bill extends the duration of the State Department of Education's School Resource Officer Program from a three-year pilot to a five-year program. It also increases the annual spending limit for the School Security Revolving Fund from $50 million to $75 million. This fund provides money for public school districts to employ school resource officers and implement physical security enhancements like cameras, locks, and panic alert systems. The changes directly affect public school districts, their students, and security personnel by expanding and increasing funding for these security measures.
