The proposed bill would amend current statutes related to the authority of charter school governing bodies and school district governing boards regarding weapons detection systems. Under the new provisions, if a charter school has a weapons detection system, the governing body may authorize the highest-ranking officer to modify the system without prior approval from the governing body. This officer would be required to report any modifications to the governing body within 24 hours. Similarly, for school districts with weapons detection systems, the governing board's policies may allow the superintendent to make modifications without prior approval, with the same reporting requirement in place.
Additionally, the bill prohibits governing bodies and boards from authorizing any other individuals to modify the weapons detection systems without prior approval. The amendments also include technical changes to ensure clarity and consistency in the language of the statutes. Overall, the bill aims to streamline the decision-making process regarding the modification of weapons detection systems in schools while maintaining oversight through reporting requirements.
