The bill amends the Revised School Code by adding Section 1308f, which mandates the development of school safety and security training materials and best practices by the Department of State Police and the Office of School Safety. This training will cover various topics, including position-specific training for school resource officers, legal updates regarding their authority, crisis response team training, and protocols for all school personnel on threat reporting and emergency operations. The materials and training resources will be made publicly available on the Office of School Safety's website.

Additionally, the bill allows the governing body of a nonpublic school to opt out of these requirements. The implementation of this amendatory act is contingent upon the enactment of two other specified bills from the 103rd Legislature.
