Senate Bill 2406 amends Tennessee Code Annotated to enhance school safety measures. It adds "local law enforcement officials" to the list of entities that should be included in school safety considerations, thereby broadening the scope of collaboration in safety planning. Additionally, the bill modifies the requirements for school safety teams by mandating that both district-wide and building-level teams conduct an annual review of their respective safety plans, ensuring that these plans are regularly updated and assessed for effectiveness.

The bill aims to strengthen the framework for school safety in Tennessee by fostering greater involvement from local law enforcement and establishing a systematic review process for safety plans. This legislative change reflects a commitment to improving the safety and security of students and staff in schools across the state. The act will take effect upon becoming law, emphasizing the urgency of enhancing school safety protocols.
