This bill proposes the creation of a new section in chapter 15.1-19 of the North Dakota Century Code aimed at enhancing the protection of student victims of sexual offenses. It defines a "responsible student" as one who has been adjudicated or convicted of a sexual offense against another student in the same school. The bill outlines a safety plan that schools must develop for the victim, which may include measures such as no contact between the responsible student and the victim, expulsion hearings, and potential transfers to alternative education programs or different schools. The plan must also consider the victim's input and be reviewed regularly to ensure ongoing safety.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that the duration of any separation resulting from the safety plan will be determined by various factors, including the victim's well-being, the responsible student's age, the severity of the offense, and compliance with intervention programs. Victims or their guardians can request reviews of the safety plan, and upon the adjudication or conviction of the responsible student, relevant court documents must be provided to the school district, maintaining confidentiality regarding the victim's identity unless consent is given.
