Senate Concurrent Resolution No. by Senator Edmonds establishes the K-12 School Safety Task Force in Louisiana, aimed at studying and recommending improvements to school safety and security measures. The resolution emphasizes the importance of creating a safe learning environment for students and educators, especially in light of recent national concerns regarding school safety. The task force will conduct a comprehensive review of current safety practices and propose legislative recommendations to enhance security in public schools, with the goal of increasing student attendance, fostering trust in educational institutions, and reducing violent incidents on school grounds.

The task force will consist of various stakeholders, including members from the Senate and House Committees on Education, law enforcement, educational associations, and community representatives. It is tasked with conducting safety assessments every three years, reporting serious threats to the Louisiana State Analytical & Fusion Exchange, and submitting a written report to the legislature by March 1, 2026. The task force will be staffed by the Senate Committee on Education and will convene its first meeting by September 15, 2025. Members will serve without compensation, and the task force will dissolve upon submitting its report or by the specified date.
