This bill permits law enforcement agencies to confidentially share information about juveniles involved in family crises with the principals of their schools. The intent is to assist in planning educational and social development programs tailored to the needs of these juveniles. The bill emphasizes that any information shared will not be recorded unless authorized by the State Board of Education, and it explicitly states that such information cannot be used to impose any disciplinary actions within the school.
The legislation aims to foster a supportive environment for juveniles facing family challenges by enabling school officials to better understand and address their needs. By allowing this exchange of information while maintaining confidentiality and protecting the juveniles from potential disciplinary repercussions, the bill seeks to enhance the educational and social support systems available to at-risk youth.
