School officers treated as school employees
The law treats school resource officers and school security guards as school employees. It applies even when they work under a contract, not directly for the school. Under state rape and sexual battery laws, sexual acts by these officers against students are felonies. It covers victims who are at least 16 and under 20 and are students or under school custody or supervision. The officer must be 18 or older. The act is in effect now.
