School Safety Notification System Act

This bill requires school districts receiving federal education funds to create emergency response plans and notify parents/guardians about specific covered emergencies. It directly affects all local school districts under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, mandating timely alerts for incidents like active shooters, weapons use, bomb threats, violent crimes, natural disasters, or hazardous conditions. Key provisions include developing plans with public safety agencies, standardizing alarm responses, and clearly identifying who contacts emergency services during crises. The law defines "covered emergencies" to include threats like sexual misconduct involving staff, trespassing, fires, and severe weather. School districts must implement these procedures as a condition for receiving federal funding under the ESEA.
