Local Education Agencies - As introduced, requires, with certain exceptions, each LEA and public charter school to implement a computer-based system that must be used by its teachers and school staff to collect data of early warning signs demonstrated by students enrolled in the LEA or public charter school. - Amends TCA Title 16; Title 37 and Title 49.

SB 1487 requires Tennessee public schools and charter schools to implement a computer-based system for teachers and staff to document early warning signs of student behavioral, safety, or health issues (such as bullying, mental health concerns, or threats). The system must align with existing school policies, automatically notify school safety teams when concerns are logged, and include annual reports to the state education department with anonymized data on the types and frequency of concerns. Schools must train staff on using the system and comply with privacy laws like FERPA, with potential state funding penalties for non-compliance. The law takes effect July 1, 2026, and does not apply to schools already using a compliant system before that date.
