Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

5 provisions identified: 3 benefits, 0 costs, 2 mixed.

Sliding-scale juvenile fines help families

Beginning May 6, 2026, the state uses a statewide sliding scale for juvenile fines, fees, and restitution. Courts set amounts based on the family’s ability to pay. This can lower costs for low‑income families with a child in the juvenile system.

Shift to evidence-based juvenile programs

Beginning May 6, 2026, the state commission supports statewide use of evidence‑based juvenile programs and checks quality and results. It sets a timeline so programs are evidence‑based or rated effective at reducing reoffending. Performance contracts reward proven programs, three‑month completion timelines, and services for youth at home in rural areas. The commission helps adopt and validate a detention risk tool. Savings from fewer out‑of‑home placements are steered to community options like receiving centers, mobile crisis teams, youth courts, and victim‑offender mediation.

New rules for school transfers and records

Beginning May 6, 2026, school boards can deny out-of-district applications if a student has a school safety incident. Boards may allow provisional enrollment with conditions. A school may not enroll a transfer until it gets the prior record or an administrator checks the state data gateway for violations or threat assessments. Sending schools must send certified records within five school days and include discipline files, safe‑school violations, reintegration info, and threat assessments. If a record is flagged under state law, it cannot be forwarded and the requested school must notify the division.

Reintegration plans after serious student offenses

Beginning May 6, 2026, when police or a court notify the school about a serious offense, the school and district must create a reintegration plan within seven school days during session, or within seven days after school resumes from summer break. Each plan must include behavior supports, short‑term counseling, and academic help. A school may deny admission until the plan is complete. Plans last the school year or 180 days, or longer if the team decides. If the offense targeted a school employee or student, the victim and parent must be told. Schools may not reintegrate a student where a protective order exists or a covered victim attends or works. If an LEA declines reintegration for a forcible felony, it must provide alternative education.

Faster school safety notices, tighter privacy

Beginning May 6, 2026, officers must tell the school within five days when a minor is taken into custody for a serious offense. After adjudication for a serious offense, probation must notify the school and local police within three days. Notices may include only the minor’s name, the offense, and, if relevant, the victim’s name in the same school or district. These notices are protected records; other disclosures follow FERPA and state records law. By July 1, 2025, districts must keep a secure digital cumulative file or reintegration plan for at least one year and ensure it follows the student.
