Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.

Faster school response to bullying

Beginning July 1, 2025, staff report known incidents that same day, and an administrator screens the report right away. If a violation seems likely, the school stops the behavior, protects the student, and starts an investigation. Parents of involved students are told before the office closes that day, or by the close of the next school day. Investigations finish in about 5 school days, with up to 2 more in special cases, and victims get a check-in within 10 school days. Parents get the written findings within 24 hours of completion and can appeal or complain to the state within 30 days. If no violation is found, the incident is not added to the accused student’s education record.

School reassignment after bullying finding

Beginning July 1, 2025, after a confirmed bullying, cyber-bullying, or race-based discrimination violation, families can seek school moves. If a victim’s parent asks, the board must assign the victim to a different school. The perpetrator’s parent may also ask, and the board may reassign the perpetrator as part of discipline, after consulting the parent. If both are moved, the perpetrator cannot be placed at the victim’s new school.
