The bill proposes an appropriation of $10,000,000 from the general fund to the Department of Public Safety for the purpose of providing security enhancement grants to both public school districts and nonpublic schools accredited by the Department of Education. To qualify for these grants, schools must have undergone a security assessment within the last five years, established a trained behavioral threat assessment team, and obtained approval from their governing board to apply for the funds. The Department of Public Safety is tasked with administering these grants, which will not exceed $2,000,000 annually, and will be available for applications submitted between July 1 and August 15 each year.

The grants can be utilized for various security enhancements, including access control systems, surveillance cameras, panic buttons, security lighting, doors and locks, fencing, gates, and barriers, as well as other recommendations from the school's security assessment. The bill also stipulates that any unspent funds by June 30, 2030, will revert according to established procedures, and it sets an effective date for the Act beginning June 30, 2025.
